Tonight On the Titanic, Magic Tree House #17: Modern Fantasy, Intermediate


Tonight on the Titanic, Magic Tree House #17, written by Mary Pope Osborne and illustrated by Sal Murdocca
Publisher: Scholastic, Inc.
Pages: 83
Genre: Fantasy
Rating: Thumbs Up!!
Jack and his sister Anne, master librarians, are going on another adventure in the magic treehouse. Each book from this series takes the children on a trip in time through books selected in this treehouse. In this particular story the children are sent on a mission to save Ms. Morgan le Fay, the master librarian that lives in the magic treehouse. The children must complete the task that are attached to the dog found in the magic treehouse. Through Jack and Anne's travel to the Titanic, they must complete task number one.
(Book #18, #19, & #20 will complete this task list in saving the master librarian of the magic treehouse, Ms. Morgan le Fay)
I loved this book (and series) and how it tied imagination to real life events in history. The text is a quick read and the series gives various topic/books that would be a great in introducing various topics in history. "Thumbs Up!!" for sure, I say.
