Product Description
Jack and Annie are off on another adventure! This time they are sent to
ancient Greece, where a very important event is taking place. Join them as they
race against time and witness the very first Olympic games!
I did not like this book because it had the most boring mysteries I have ever read.Like most boring books,the kids go somewhere, find what there looking for and, in the case of this book, fly back on a horse with wings.They say boring things along the lines of “how did you learn to read and write?My opinion is that it is a very boring book.

As a parent and future Elem. teacher I read this book with my son for a book club that he and I run at his school for 3rd and 4th graders. My son and I enjoyed reading this book…the chapters flow quickly and the subject matter was interesting. However, I was VERY disappointed, when after a quick internet search on the ancient olympics to find out that a major premise of this story is NOT true! Girls WERE permitted to attend the ancient olympic games — yet in this story we are taught that they were not. This is a major theme in this story and I am baffled as to how the author and publisher could have produced such a book with out checking such a simple fact! I feel that I can no longer trust the Magic Tree House books to provide accurate historical information to my son. I’d rather him not read these book if he’s going to learn erroneous information from them.

My Daughter loved this book. She has read most of Mary Pope Osbournes books she really has started taking off reading from this series. Nae

As the 2010 Olympics unfold in Vancouver I turned to one of my favorite book series to find out what the olympics are about.
Well this book really concentrates on the olympics as they started out back in Greece. Very interesting about all the different sports and the competions.
Now I have a feeling what these types of international competions are about. good book.

I purchased this book for my grandson, 7, who is just learning to read. He loves the stories and he can read them himself. If he’s excited about the book, I buy it.Hour of the Olympics (Magic Tree House #16) (A Stepping Stone Book(TM))
