Great series. November 4, 2006
My son absolutely adores this series. He just turned 7. I still am reading the stories to him, but he can pick up some words and phrases as I read to him. We read the series in order and now are beginnning to reread them.
This story can be read individually, but I recommend reading the earlier ones to get to know the characters. Jack and Annie are very likeable. They try to achieve their goal with the assistance of clues given to them by the magician Merlin. It is good for problem solving and also has alot of educational tidbits.
Haunted Castle Great for Halloween November 3, 2006
My son and I have enjoyed all of May Pope Osborne's books. We enjoy Jack writing down facts and Annie rushing towards adventure. This story is exciting and kept us on the edge of our seats till the end.

This particular book I'm reading is called The Haunted Castle on Hallows Eve . It's not a very scary book but it might be for Annie and Jack. They're the main characters in the book. They have the magic tree house that sends them on missions. In this secret mission, they don't know what it is about but along the way they find clues. They don't know if it is dangerous or not. But luckily their friend Teddy can come along with them. He's from a whole different dimension. He's from a world where there's wizards. Teddy has a magic rhyming twig that nobody knows about. Inside this castle they go around looking for something that might be going wrong. The exciting, never ending heart pounding action is going to begin. Did Jack and Annie see A ghost or An invisible child. Find the excitement.
Jack and Annie learned that you don't need to prove to your friends that you have magic powers to make you brave. Just be yourself. Or maybe they're not your friends at all.
What I think about this book is that it is very exciting and that you never want to stop reading it. It's very clear writing and you get a clear picture in your mind the whole way. I think you should read this book because it's very exciting and there's action all the way through it. It's a great mystery book and it really entertains you. The book has expressive words and illustrations. This book is not just a little kids book, it's a great family book for anyone who likes to read. Its great!

wow...the 30th book in the Magic Treehouse series. Quite a landmark indeed for Mary Pope Osborne who has been wowing elementary school kids with these imaginative tales of time travel to mythical and fantastic lands for a long time. Jack and Annie are summoned again by Merlin to the enchanted land of Camelot. They are to journey to a haunted castle to find the stolen Stone of Destiny. They are joined in this adventure by Teddy, the apprentice wizard to Morgan le Fay. At the castle they encounter all manner of spooks in their quest.
My son loved these when he was elementary school age. His eyese lit up every time he received a new one. He made sure we saved all of his books in the series so that he could pass them onto his little brother once he becomes old enough to read them. These are great imaginative and fun reads for kids...and adults who read along.
