We're already 10 books in and by book 2 we know that Annie is impulsive and Jack is thoughtful. I know they are books for kids, but still. I love the concept and theme, but the application just isn't a winner for me. It's trite and the writing isn't particularly good. We got this series based on a friend's recommendation and it was spot on. Definitely something everyone should read in their childhood!! The books were cute, hilarious, factual, and made learning easy. Annie needed to grow up a bit, she was funny, a tiny bit annoying and rushed into things sometimes, but the brother and sister pair balanced each other out. Jack stuck to facts, was a total nerd, and needed to loosen up and have some fun. I can't really remember what it was that had me so captivated by the books but I think it was because Jack and Annie were so different. What was in the box? My old magic tree house books! I had the box set 1-4 and a couple other random numbers thrown in there. I slowly forgot about this beloved series and was on to bigger and better things (Magic Tree house wasn't exactly a challenging read for any 5th-9th grader lol but the other day i tripped over a box in my basement. My life practically revolved around going to the library to get the next book! I stopped reading after #34 where they were coming out new and I had to wait forever for the library to get them and i was growing up and reading new things. So this will we a review of every Magic Tree House book EVER.
