Pirates Past Noon (Magic Tree House, No. 4)Summary:
It's a rainy day and Jack and Annie go to the tree house and see a book that has a picture of a sailboat, a parrot and a palm tree. They head on an adventure to an Island…………..

Review:
I thought the book was quite interesting and wished it went on longer. It was exciting to hear about them getting captured and being brought onto the ship.

I was disappointed that they never opened the treasure chest and left us at the end of story without telling us everything I wanted to know.

I would recommend it for second and third grade boys and girls. The words are easy to read except for one.
Customer Review: A Great New Adventure!
In this 4th installment of the Magic Tree House series, Jack and Annie find themselves on a deserted island, quickly confronted by three not so nice pirates - Pinky, Stinky and Cap'n Bones. The pirates are in search of Captain Kidd's buried treasure and they are sure that Jack and Annie know where it is. With the pirates desperate to find the treasure and a storm on its way, how will the kids get out of this one and back home safely?
The end of Pirates Past Noon holds a delightful surprise and is sure to lead you quickly in search of book #5! This is a great series that my 5 year old daughter and I love. It is perfect for kids who are outgrowing the younger picture books and getting ready for chapter books. These books have a picture every few pages, so that helps in the transition of reading/listening stages, I think. They are also a great way to introduce your child to different regions and to learn a bit about history.
