Every visit to the magic tree house leads to adventure! Jack and Annie are whisked back in time to the Age of Dinosaurs, a medieval castle, ancient pyramids, and treasure-seeking pirates.
But when they discover a tree house in the woods, something magical happens. Meet Jack and Annie! Jack and his younger sister, Annie, are just regular kids. Sometimes I am amazed that they know about certain people or events and it comes out that they learned it through these books.
I love that the Magic Tree House series has taught both of my kids so much about history in a really fun way. She has crazy red pigtails, no parents to tell her what to do, a horse that lives on her porch, and a flair for the outrageous that seems to lead to one adventure after another! Tommy and his sister Annika have a new neighbor, and her name is Pippi Longstocking. I’m sure he’s drawn to it for the silliness factor and I know he loves that he has the same name as Pippi’s father (Efraim/Ephraim).
He guessed he’s listened to it 80 times and while I think that’s a little high I know it’s been at least a couple of dozen times. Pippi Longstocking has by far been his favorite audiobook of the year. I have a post I titled the Ultimate Guide to Using Audiobooks in Your Home with lots of audio tips and tricks. We listen to audiobooks most through our library’s Overdrive and Libby apps as well as with our subscription to Scribd (you can get your first two months of Scribd free here). I have made a couple of other lists of novels for grade one over the years, you can also check those out: I asked him to tell him his favorite audiobooks he has listened to this year and he came up with this list! He’s got quite the sense of humor so there are a lot of silly books on this list. My son is in grade one this year, when my daughter was this age she was reading novels, he’s not quite there yet but that hasn’t stopped him from taking in a lot of novels this year thanks to audiobooks.
