Learning About Rainforests By Sharon Lai on Apr 16, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

"Jack pointed to the cover of the book and said, ‘I wish we could go there'. The wind started to blow. The tree house started to spin. It spun faster and faster. Then everything was still. Absolutely still."

The Magic Treehouse series by Mary Pope Osborn has spiraled into an incredible series that not only teaches kids about history, but lets them see what it would be like to be in history. This series is a monolithic hit with young children, and there are over forty books in total.

In this next installment of the normal Magic Treehouse series, Jack and Annie go to a rainforest. Children learn about the different kinds of wildlife living the raniforests, the different layers of the forest, and even the culture of the natives living the rainforest adn calling it home.

This book teaches people about the amazing wildlife and diversity of the rainforest- and how we need to preserve our ranforests forever!
