Review: New York Times bestselling author, Mary Pope Osborne delivers another fascinating adventure in the Magic Tree House series. Jack and his sister, Annie, who discovered the tree house, set out on another exciting mission. After the children visit Frog Creek, they learn that Merlin has another request for them to find the next 'secret of greatness.' As the children prepare to find the Great Harry Houdini, the tree house lands in Coney Island. Jack and Annie know that top priority is to purchase tickets, to see Houdini at Henderson's Music Hall. However, after buying hot dogs and ice cream, then having a blast of fun on the water slide ride, Jack realizes that they may not be able to purchase tickets in time for Houdini's performance. When the children arrive on Surf Avenue, what do they learn from the people in the box-office? What happened to the Bambini Brothers, and were the tickets sold-out to see the Great Houdini? What did Jack and Annie have to do to fulfill their mission? Mary Pope Osborne takes the reader through a mystical, magical ride in one of the world's incredible amusement parks. The setting of bright lights in Coney Island, along with delicious treats and fun-filled rides, is picture-perfect. In addition, if the reader has experienced this amusement park and I have several times in my childhood, you feel as if you are there, while enjoying every amazing moment of fun and laughs. The intriguing story is filled with mystery, history, and fantasy. What did the children argue about, does Jack help his sister, and will 'The Ring of Truth' begin to glow? The colorful characters come to life, and a surprise ending will have you craving for more. Highly recommended to parents, teachers, and child-care providers.

Review: 7 year old son loves Magic treehouse books! The books are long enough to be a chapter book, but not so big that kids will feel like they will never finish. My son loves that there are occasional photos on the pages.
