"I liked how it was so fairy tale and everything always turns out alright in the end. It was very enchanting. There is magic and you never have to be afraid of what's going to happen next, because you always know it will turn out well in the end." — Emily (5 out of 5 stars)

" Season of the Sandstorm goes great with my unit on Saudi Arabia and cultural diversity. Jack and Annie are the perfect pair to solve Merlin's Mysteries. "

" This book was good. I liked it a lot, I just wouldn't give it five stars because I don't really like camels. "
" This was a nice, brief introduction to the history of ancient Baghdad. I'm not really a history buff so I did learn some things. I think kids who are interested in history and geography and don't mind a bit of fantasy thrown in would definitely enjoy the Magic Tree House series. "
" its Awseome. "
" See the first book in the series for a full review. "
" At the school library where I work these are super popular. This is the first I've read in the series,and it wasn't especially interesting or charming. Has potential- maybe others in the series are better. "

" Again I really think I need to like stop reading easy books, but it's like I collect them so I need to read them when I buy them so it's like I can't stop. "
