Part of Magic Tree House: Merlin Missions, book 1
First published 2010
Jack and Annie receive an urgent call for help that transports them to the most famous castle in legend. Camelot faces terrible danger, and King Arthur has lost hope that anything can save his kingdom. The young brother and sister must embark on a perilous quest through the magical realm, using only their wits and courage against forces that threaten to destroy everything Arthur has built. As they navigate challenges that test both their friendship and their faith in themselves, Jack and Annie discover that even the smallest heroes can make the biggest difference. Their adventure will prove to a discouraged king that children possess a special kind of power. In this expanded Magic Tree House adventure, Mary Pope Osborne crafts a longer story that gives readers more time with beloved characters while delivering the same accessible storytelling that has made the series so popular with young readers.
