- Good Morning, Gorillas by Mary Pope Osborne (Random House, August 2002).
Jack and Annie travel to an African rain forest, encountering a young gorilla before being separated from each other for the night. But all turns out well when they find each other, find a family of bigger gorillas, and find a second kind of magic without wands.
As with several of the Magic Tree House stories, the kids’ destination in this one might be in the present time.

—Michael Main
But he couldn’t find the magic. He couldn’t find the words that finished the rhyme. Worst of all, he couldn’t find Annie.
