Rachael's favorite books


For her 8th birthday, Rachael was given the first three books in The Magic Tree House series. And now, about ten minutes ago, she finished reading Book 10 and just ran into the room to get Book 11.

These are the first actual books that Rachael is reading (other than a few picture books she read a few months ago.) It's also the first time she is reading on her own initiative.

Fortunately, there are ... what? ... thirty or forty books in the series, so that will keep her going for a while.

By the way, you can go to their website, and download a Passport Book. Then, for every book you read, you can answer three questions on-line to get a passport to add to the designated spot in your book.

My 8 year old loves these books too!! They are fun and they actually teach facts. They are great to read together because parents aren't bored out of their minds!
