Yesterday I bought some Magic Tree House books for the girlies. I started reading one of them last night and I’m not sure I like it. We just studied (okay watched on Planet Earth) the Arctic and Antarctic in science. According to the video the arctic never loses all the snow and ice. It melts in the summer but they still have snow and ice and blizzards.

The book says,

“During the summer season, the snow and ice melt and the sun shines 24 hours a day.” (Polar Bears Past Bedtime page 12)

Now technically that is correct. The sun does shine 24 hours a day and some of the snow and ice melt but not all of it.

I’m not sure what I’m going to do now. Do I keep the books, or return them and laugh hilariously at the clerk? Hmmmm…..
