The eleventh book of the Magic Tree House collection is titled "Lions at Lunchtime". In this adventure, written by Mary Pope Osborne, the main characters, Jack and Annie, travel back in time to the African grasslands. They find themselves in the middle of a safari where they witness the incredible wildlife of Africa, including elephants, zebras, and, of course, lions. The main idea of this book is the importance of respecting and appreciating nature and its creatures. Through their journey, Jack and Annie learn about the delicate balance of ecosystems and the need to protect endangered species. They also learn about the Maasai people and their culture, further highlighting the diversity and richness of the African continent.

Tusk V Makes his Debut as the Newest Generation of Razorback Living Mascot
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Chances are, you have heard someone say they were “Born to be a Razorback!” However, few, if any, can lay claim to that statement more than Tusk V, the newest generation of the University of Arkansas’ live mascot program.
Tusk V was literally born to be the Razorback. Taking over for his father, Tusk IV, who retired following the 2019 NCAA Baseball Super Regional at Baum-Walker Stadium, Tusk V debuted as the University of Arkansas’ official live mascot at the opening football game of the 2019 season.
“Earlier this fall, Tusk V arrived on campus to carry on the longstanding legacy of the live mascot program at the University of Arkansas,” said Hunter Yurachek, vice chancellor and director of athletics. “Thanks to the tremendous loving care and extraordinary commitment of the Keith and Julie Stokes family, this beloved University of Arkansas tradition continues much to the delight of Razorbacks everywhere. The live mascot program is an integral part of our Razorback heritage. After all, we are ONE state rallied around ONE Razorback!”

Reviews for "Journey to Mythical Lands in the Eleventh Book of the Magic Tree House Collection"
1. Sarah - 2 stars
I was extremely disappointed with "The eleventh book of the magic tree house collection". The plot felt rushed and poorly developed, and the characters lacked depth. Additionally, the writing style was flat and unengaging, making it difficult to connect with the story. Overall, I found this book to be a letdown compared to the previous ones in the series.
2. Michael - 1 star
I cannot express how much I disliked "The eleventh book of the magic tree house collection". The story was confusing and didn't make much sense, with random events happening without explanation. The main characters, Jack and Annie, were also irritating and their dialogue felt forced. The whole book seemed like a rushed and uninspired attempt at continuing the series, and I would not recommend it to anyone.
3. Emily - 2 stars
"The eleventh book of the magic tree house collection" fell short of my expectations. The writing felt lazy, with repetitive phrases and cliché descriptions. The plot was predictable and lacked any surprises or twists. Overall, it felt like a formulaic addition to the series rather than a fresh and engaging story. I would advise skipping this book and moving on to the next installment in the Magic Tree House series.
