Add Some Magic to Your Reading with Dinosaurs Before Dark
The Magic Treehouse series is one of the best-selling chapter book series of all time for a reason. The books are a great entry into the chapter book genre and there is a book for nearly every topic of interest. Dinosaurs Before Dark is the first book in the series and introduces the reader to the Magic Treehouse and the adventure that it can bring to the lives of Jack and Annie. It is a great book to use in your classroom or homeschool for a whole class novel study, small book groups, or individual book studies.
I created this novel study for my own son to use during the summer months after second grade. The goal was to launch him into the chapter book world with this book as the hook.
From the Book Jacket:
Where did the tree house come from?
Before Jack and Annie can find out, the mysterious tree house whisks them to the prehistoric past. Now they have to figure out how to get home. Can they do it before dark . . . or will they become a dinosaur’s dinner?
