APPEALS TO MANY 

Jack and Annie have been taken by the magic tree house to the Amazon rain forest to find something that will help their friend Morgan le Fey. While they are there they discover that the rain forest isn't for wimps, what with flesh-eating army ants, poisonous snakes, and piranhas. 

A fast and fun way to get an introduction to the Amazon rain forest, this book will appeal to kids wishing to go on an adventure. The story is fast paced and the art is colorful and delightful. This could be every kid's dream! Jack and Annie appear to be Caucasian.
