Vacation Under the Volcano

Vacation Under the Volcano sends Jack and Annie back to the days of the Roman Empire, where they arrive in Pompeii on the very day the city will be destroyed and must race to find an ancient library before it disappears in ash. As in every Magic Tree House adventure, real history unfolds through fast-paced, kid-friendly storytelling. This is a dependable choice for students because it hooks reluctant readers with adventure while quietly teaching them about one of history's most famous natural disasters.
