Book #13: Vacation Under the Volcano

Jack and Annie discover the danger of Pompeii, in their first adventure as Master Librarians!



For this installment of our book club, we first completed a fill-in-the-blank Q&A together. Find the fill-ins here!

The answers to the fill-ins were part of a double puzzle created through Puzzlemakers. Individually, everyone completed their word scrambles, and used the numbered letters to fill in the final phrase..."When in Rome, do as the Romans do!"

Finally, our craft was building mini-volcanoes! Everyone received a miniature plastic bottle. They used the bottle as a mold, around which to put clay, creating the perfect volcano shape. By leaving the mouth of the bottle open, the volcano could be activated (at home) by adding baking soda and vinegar. Lava and laughs will ensue!

Join us on Wednesday, January 14th for the next Magic Tree House Book Club, featuring book #14, Day of the Dragon King. Don't forget to register!
