This book is a festive magic treehouse book! Travel with Jack and Annie back to the Middle Ages to Camelot as the follow more clues to the treehouse mystery. These two explore different times with curiosity and caution. They are brother and sister yet share and listen more than quarrel. They make the book go quickly. It is well written with many facts about the middle ages yet it is more of a mystery. This chapter book is fun to read aloud or to yourself!

Magic tree house books promote reading and these books have share a children's imagination. I highly recommend these books to either be read by the child or too the child.

It was a book my daughter wanted and we couldn't find it locally. Shipped very quickly, arrived in brand new condition as described. Love Ebay!

My 6 yrs old grandson read the magic tree house books and I decided to check ebay for some. I bought at least 10 maybe 12. THey were excellent books. There is no difference in the condition of the books even the used ones look new. I am very satisfied. And still looking for more. Sincerely, Ruth

I loved this #29 Magic Treehouse Series. The book tells of siblings Jack & Annie who while walking through the woods in Frog Creek, come upon the magic treehouse once again. once they climb the rope radder, they discover a note inviting them to spend Christmas Eve in Camelot signed by M. whom they assume is their friend Morgan Le Fay. When they reach Camelot, they finds that it is dark and gloomy with no joy or magic. After speaking with Morgan, they learn that the invitation was not sent by her. They speak with King Arthur and learn that a spell has been cast on the kingdom by Mondred's Dark Wizard robbing it of all its joy. The king has sent his bravest knights (Sirs Lancelot, Galahad, Percival) to the Otherworld (an ancient, enchanted land beyond the edge of the Earth)to recapture the kingdom's joy. Soon after, a Christmas Knight enters the kingdom and demands King Arthur to send more to the Otherworld or the kingdom will be forgotten forever. Jack and Annie agree to go, but the king and Morgan try to stop them but the Christmas Knight freezes the king, his queen, and Morgan. They are given a rhyme that they must complete to get to and return safely from the Otherworld. They must have the knight's magic cape, acup, a compass , and a key. They travel there on a white magic stag. Once they reach the the land, they are met with different obstacle, but the four gifts help them reach the end. They meet the three knights from Camelot and rescue them form a never ending dance that has them under a spell. Each knight gives them one of the three gifts left on the list to enter and get pass the Keepers of the Cauldron that turns out to be fire-breathing dragons. They use the cup to capture water from a fountain at the Water of Memory and Imagination and return to save Camelot and restore its joy.

My son reads for school. Her books are fun to read, and teaches about history. My son can't wait to read the next book.
