     The book that I’m going to talk about is Afternoon on the Amazon. The people in the book are 8 year old Jack and his 7 year old sister, Annie. They live on Frog Creek. Jack and Annie find a tree house and it is filled with books. Soon enough Jack and Annie find out that the tree house is magic. Jack and Annie are going to the Amazon Rain Forest. They have to find a special object to free Morgan Le Fay. Jack and Annie don’t know a thing about the rain forest. A rain forest is a place were the weather is always warm. The rain forest has a lot of animals too. Jack and Annie have a book that they always have to help them on their journeys. They are at the Amazon Rain Forest and their journey has started, but now they’re stuck in the emergent layer. To find out what happens to Jack and Annie read Afternoon on the Amazon.
