Sunset of the Sabertooth

Osborne, M.P. (1996). Sunset of the sabertooth. New York, NY: Scholastic Inc.


          In their magical tree house, there is a book, and when looked at, it takes them places.  The main characters Jack and Annie take us on a journey back to the Ice Age in book seven in the series of the Magic Tree House.  The rising action of this book begins after Annie runs her finger over a picture which takes them back in time to the Ice Age.  Not prepared, Jack tries to stop her, but realizes it is too late.
          This book is full of adventure from beginning to end.  There is never a dull moment with these two characters as they realize they must find an item before they return to present time.  The mystery of the unknown keeps these two on their toes.  Traveling through time and encountering animals from the past such as the sabertooth and wolly mammoth bring added excitement to this adventure.
