Magic Tree House #29: Christmas in Camelot Review

We found out that our four year old was excited about listening to chapter books - but after a few here and there that we found to be age appropriate, we were without ideas. We asked our local librarian who really didn't have any ideas for us - and then we lucked into Magic Tree House books. They are a treasure! Annie and Jack's adventures are not only age appropriate for a curious 4 year old, but they introduce history and situations that we would be otherwise unlikely to grab her attention (Shakespeare, civil rights, etc). These books never get old to her - and it is rather refreshing to not have all the marketing items (dolls, bed sheets, etc) that usually get pushed with a product.

Magic Tree House #29: Christmas in Camelot Overview

The Magic Tree House series has become a staple for inspiring kids to read. Christmas in Camelot is a very special Magic Tree House book. Here, author Mary Pope Osborne uses the literary skills for which she’s known to create a longer, more in-depth story featuring the characters kids have come to love. The result is magical: a fast-paced but detailed, easy-to-read story. Jack and Annie go on a quest to save Camelot, a quest that will prove to a beleaguered King Arthur that children and imagination really can make a difference.

Magic Tree House #29: Christmas in Camelot Specifications

A cup, a compass, a key: the magic tree house has brought siblings Annie and Jack to Camelot, where they embark on a mysterious mission to find these enigmatic gifts. In this special hardcover addition to the bestselling Magic Tree House series, the young adventurers must travel to the Otherworld, an "ancient, enchanted land beyond the edge of the Earth, the place where all magic began" to save Camelot from dark wizard Mordred's evil spell. If they fail, Camelot will be forgotten forever. Fans of the beloved, highly readable series by Mary Pope Osborne will rise to the challenge of this longer, more complex companion to her other titles, which include Earthquake in the Early Morning and Twister on Tuesday. As in every story in the sequence, Jack and Annie bravely plunge into their quest, learning about a culture and time very far removed from their own, and prove once again that children can make a difference. (Ages 6 to 9) --Emilie Coulter

A Ludicrous Story - dream factory - Triangulum, M33
Wouldn't common sence tell you that if you have the word "Christmas" in the title of a book, then there would be something (anything) about Christmas in the story.

Well, no such logic nor luck in this story. Instead you get a 'giant slimy' dragon, 'golden skin, fairies dancing in a circle, Merlin the warlock, and the 'Christmas knight' who put the kids under some spell. Oh yea "and the white stag carried us to the otherworld".

What is this baloney?
Christmas is about Christ!!
Or you may bend it in to some insane-a-claus story.
But to pervert it into this tale is ludicrous.
