Happy Wednesday Everyone!!

 

WOW!  10 inches of snow outside my window today.  I love snow but not 10 inches.  I wish I knew someone to come and shovel my driveway just in case I need to get out but not sure who that would be.  I used to have a young man who came to do it for me but since I moved I haven't found anyone to do it. So I guess I am snowed in today. :) I am drinking some hot green tea and enjoying the sunshine on the snow.  Hope you are enjoying your day wherever you are.  Today I am going to share another Magic Treehouse Book.  I hope you and the children are enjoying reading these books.  Please share with me how the children are enjoying the books.  I would love to hear from you.

Afternoon on the Amazon

by

Mary Pope Osborne

 

 

Vampire bats and killer ants?  That is what Jack and Annie are about to run into as the Magic Treehouse whisks them away to the magic of the Amazon.  It is not long before Jack and Annie are hopelessly lost in the jungle of the Amazon.  What will they do and will they be able to get back home?  This is a really good book and introduces the children to many animals found along the Amazon River.  There is a book also that goes along with Afternoon on the Amazon.  It is called Fact Tracker  Rainforests.  My students always loved the adventures of Jack and Annie and also wondered how they would get back home.  I love that the stories always start with books.  Just check out some of the Magic Treehouse Books at your local library.
