The tenth book in the Magic Tree House series is every young kid's fantasy about what the Wild West was like, which is a fitting atmosphere for a story that was inspired by a child's fan letter requesting that Jack and Annie help the horses. From the moment you pick up the book, the beautiful illustrations bring to life the childhood wonder of these stories with a softness that is reminiscent of watercolor paintings. This time, Jack and Annie have yet another short and sweet adventure that leaves kids satisfied with their imaginations and adults (read: me) wanting to see them explore for just a bit longer in that world.
