'Dinosaurs Before Dark' is the first in the series of "Magic Tree House" books. The short chapter book is great for young readers and tells the tale of a pair of siblings that find a tree house in the woods behind their house. Jack and Annie climb the tree house and find tons of books there. They open a book about dinosaurs and are immediately taken to a faraway land. This story tells the journey of Jack and Annie's adventures in the land of the dinosaurs and how they get back home.

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0679824111, Paperback)

Illus. in black-and-white. "With an entertaining blend of fact, farce, and fantasy, Osborne tells the story of Jack and his sister, Annie, who take a trip in a magic tree house and land in a time 65 million years ago. They find dinosaurs and volcanoes and adventure. Veteran storyteller Osborne builds the power of reading into the story: it's the books in the tree house that give the kids the magic to travel and see far, far away."--Booklist.
