Magic tree house:Day of the dragon King

Annie peeked into Jack's room. "Ready to go to China?"she asked. Jack took a deep breath. "Sure,"he answered. "Bring your secret library card,"Annie said. "I have mine in my pocket." "Yep," said Jack. He opened his top dresser drawer and took out  a thin wooden card. The letters ML on it shimmered in the light. Jack dropped the card into his backpack.Then he threw in his notebook and pencil."Lets go," said Annie. Jack pulled on his pack and followed her. What are we in for today? he wondered."Bye, Mom!" said Annie as they passed their mom in the kitchen. "Where are you going?"she asked. "China!"said Annie. "Great,"said their mom. She winked at them."Have fun." Fun? thought Jack. He was afraid that fun wasn't quite the word. "Just wish us good luck,'he said as he and Annie headed out the front door. "Good luck!" Their mother called. "If only she knew we aren't pretending,"Jack whispered to Annie. "Yeah," said Annie, grinning. Outside, the sun shone brightly. Birds sang Crickets chirped.Jack and Annie walked up their street toward the Frog Creek woods. " I wonder if the weather will be this nice in China," Annie said. By Dennis
