The first book where your child holds one whole story across ten short chapters.
Jack and Annie find a tree house full of books that whisk them back to the age of dinosaurs — and they have to get home before dark.
It's the first book on the trail that really feels like a traditional chapter book: ten chapters, fewer pictures, one story that carries all the way through. But the chapters are still short enough that it never feels like a wall. And it's book one of a giant series, so once it clicks you'll never be stuck for what's next.
