The first Magic Tree House book was published in 1992, introducing the world to Jack and Annie, a brother and sister who discover a magical tree house filled with books.

A good site with some basic math reference tables. One really cool feature of this site is a math message board where you can post your specific math question, and get answers from other students and from experts.
