Penny, the abandoned penguin which they saved on a previous mission and gave to Merlin as a present, has accidentally been turned into a stone statue by their young sorcerer friend Teddy, and they need to find four things to break the spell. They have just returned from finding the first one, an emerald rose from Mogul India. Now they must find a white and yellow flower and live its meaning for an hour. But the Magic Tree House takes them to the Swiss Alps around 1800 in the middle of winter. It’s freezing cold outside, and the ground is covered with snow. How will they find a flower in those conditions? And what will happen when they are caught in an avalanche? There is a lot of interesting information woven into this story. Budding botanists will be pleased to know that Laurent Murith, abbot at the Monastery of St. Bernard in 1800, was a great naturalist who collected many specimens of flowers for the monastery library. Students of history will enjoy travelling with First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte from France through the Alps to Italy with 60,000 soldiers in 1800. And, of course, dog lovers will delight in getting to know the first Barry, the St. Bernard dog who saved more than forty lives between 1800 and 1812. The only somewhat negative note is that Jack and Annie use a lot of common euphemisms, such as “gee” and “heck.” Our boys long ago outgrew the reading level of these books, but my wife has continued to purchase each one as it comes out because she likes to read them. And I guess that I do too. Jack and Annie have had several adventures through their magic treehouse. In this transitional chapter book, Annie and Jack try to survive the bitter cold in the French Alps. Jack and Annie travel back in time to retrieve a flower important to Teddy and Kathleen. This installment in The Magic Treehouse series teaches kids that having fun is important but so is following your duties. This is a fun and exciting story for kids just delving into the wonderful world of chapter books; it even teaches them how to take effective notes on stories. Jack and Annie are always nice to each other, even when everything seems to go wrong which shows that a positive attitude can help in any situation.
