Day of the Dragon King by Mary Pope Osborne (Magic Tree House #14)


I first read this book when I was 5 or 6, and I'm 7 now. I really like how the illustrator includes cool pictures, especially the cover. The story is that a magic tree house mysteriously appeared, filled with books which take them to the places. They just point to the picture and wish to go there. They discover it belongs to Morgan Le Fay, a magical librarian from the time of King Arthur. In this book, Jack and Annie go to Ancient China. Students in first grade and up should read this book.

A Series of Unfortunate Events

Do you love books written by an author with a sense of humor? If you do, then then you should try the series of books called A Series of Unfortunate Events, by Lemony Snicket. I know what your thinking, how can a book with the word unfortunate be funny? Well, Lemony Snicket is a very funny guy. For example, whenever Sunny, a character in the book,(she is a baby) says something like “goo” he translates. And usually, it’s something you wouldn’t expect a baby to say. Something very detailed. These books are so funny!
