Bryant can listen to these all day, he loves this series.
adventurous lighthearted mysterious relaxing medium-paced

I don’t feel like these are really works of great literature but the are fairly entertaining and educational. You learn quite a bit about the various places and times periods the kids visit. My 4-year old enjoyed listening with me and if she would seen the pictures in the print version I’m sure she would’ve been more interested. I really DO like the connecting elements across the books in this series—not always found in these popular series.

Another super cute one! Listening to these while I clean my dorm is a great escape!

This was educational with a great plot. This would be awesome for kids who want to know a little more about the Native American way of life without having to read a textbook for it.

My boys and I really enjoy the adventures that Jack and Annie get to go on! We do these as audiobooks before bed and they're a great read for both my kiddos (4 & 6 years old). Not too intense, but enough for it to hold our interest and the boys like being able to "make up pictures" in their heads to go along with the stories!

I loved these books as a kid and I decided I wanted to read them once again and see how they hold up. I love the fun adventures Jack and Annie go on. These are quick reads that are simple, enjoyable, and educational- perfect for young readers. I love Jack and Annie’s contrasting personalities. 

*Slight spoiler*
I hadn’t realized how soon they met Morgan and I was really surprised by this.

I enjoyed my re-read of these books and to be honest, I don’t remember too much beyond these first eight books. I will be continuing on with my reread of these books. 

Happy Reading my Friends.
