Magic Tree House stars Jack and Annie escort readers through their research into Irish folklore, particularly wee folk and their human experts. It's lucidly told, but as a stand-alone, the book reads like a list of fairies and their idiosyncrasies. It features black-and-white photos and illustrations, including a gem of Jack and Annie in fairy regalia. Reading list, websites. Ind.
