Jack and Annie find a dog in the tree house and a note from Morgan. They read the note that said:"This little dog is under a spell and needs your help.To free him,you must be given four special Things:A gift from a ship lost at sea, A gift from the prairie blue, A gift from a forest far away, A gift from a Kangaroo. Be wise. be brave. Be careful." Jack and Annie found a Titanic book and Jack wished they would be on the Titanic. The Titanic was sailing and then it bumped into an ice burg. The Titanic started to tip until the bottom went up. The captain turned on the radio for S.O.S. which means Save Our Souls. All the ships had turned off their radios for the night except one that was far away. There was an announcement that said women and children were first for the lifeboats. Annie accidentally got into a lifeboat. Jack pulled Annie back onto the ship as the lifeboat was going down into the sea. Jack and Annie found the tree house, got back in, and then they disappeared back home. They got a pocket watch from a kid and teenage girl on the Titanic. Their mission was a success.
This was a pretty good book. I liked when Jack and Annie found the dog in the tree house. The dog was under a spell and Jack and Annie got a gift from a teenage girl. This book is the best because there was some safety and life boats.
Tonight on the Titanic was written by Mary Pope Osborne and published by Scholastic.

Reviews for "Spreading Christmas Cheer with a Magical Stocking"
1. Samantha - 2 stars - I found "Magic Christmas Stocking" to be quite disappointing. The story felt incredibly predictable and lacked any real depth. The characters were one-dimensional and there was very little character development throughout the book. Additionally, the writing style was quite basic and didn't engage me as a reader. Overall, I was expecting more from this book and it fell short of my expectations.
2. John - 1 star - "Magic Christmas Stocking" was a complete waste of time in my opinion. The plot was non-existent and the dialogue was incredibly cheesy and forced. I couldn't connect with any of the characters and I found myself rolling my eyes at the unrealistic situations they were put in. The writing was also riddled with grammatical errors and awkward sentences, making it difficult to get through. I would not recommend this book to anyone searching for a well-written and engaging holiday story.
3. Emma - 3 stars - While "Magic Christmas Stocking" wasn't the worst book I've ever read, I can't say that I enjoyed it either. The storyline felt cliché and lacked originality, following the typical formula of a predictable holiday romance. The characters were forgettable and their actions often felt unrealistic. However, I did appreciate the festive atmosphere created by the author and the descriptions of holiday traditions. Overall, it was an average Christmas read, but I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it.
