Order of Magic Tree House Books
The Magic Tree House series is a series of children’s fantasy/adventure books by American author Mary Pope Osborne. The books are about two children from Frog Creek, Pennsylvania named Jack and Annie who are sent by Morgan le Fay on various adventures using a magical tree house that can send them anywhere throughout time and space. The Magic Tree House books have been translated into over 30 languages and have sold over 100 million copies worldwide.
The Magic Tree House series began in July 1992 with the book Dinosaurs Before Dark, which was published as Valley of the Dinosaurs in the UK. Beginning with the 29th book, Jack and Annie begin taking quests from Merlin the Magician and the series is given the subtitle “Merlin Missions.” There is also a non-fiction companion series called the Magic Tree House Research Guide series or the Fact Tracker series, which Mary co-authors with her husband (Will Osborne ) and later her sister (Natalie Pope Boyce).
