Night of the Ninjas (Magic Tree House, No. 5)

Was missing this 5th installment in my collection so I ordered a new one and when it came the cover was slightly changed from the older copies I have but it fit nicely in with the others. This series is so wholesome, the way the siblings interact with each other, express doubt, apologize, and move through adventures together it such a joy. It can be simplistic in writing style lots of "jack said" or "said Annie" but thats what makes it so easy for new readers to get addicted to the series and start reading independently. My now 9 and 7 year old both read them as age 6 in first grade reading all the way through to book 40 or so before being ready to try a new series. It was the cornerstone of independent reading chapter books for our family and i treasure this series on my shelf. It's waiting for my 3 year old to be ready for her turn.

My son, who is going to be going into second grade, loves this book (as well as the series). While the reading level is slightly higher than where he’s at, we have a great time reading them together! They’re fun, interesting, and keep him engaged. Now my older son, who is going into 4th grade, is not a fan of them. We tried to get him to read them at the beginning 3rd grade and he never could get into them.

Perfect condition and great series.

Cute little book. I used it as a reading to go with Japanese History Day that I did with my grandkids.

Once again another great book in this wonderful series. All of my kids love these, highly recommend.

Pretty cool how they moved like ninjas like the ninja master said and moved like mice I think this is the best tree house book.

perfect for grandson book club

My 5.5 year old is obsessed with this series. It’s so good. I even enjoy the reading. I like that there is history mixed in with a fun story. The characters jack and Annie are very relatable.
