The Magic Tree House series by Mary Pope Osborne, illustrated by Salvatore Murdocca and AG Ford, were first published in 1992, and have seen over a hundred volumes published through a number of series, which initially saw Morgan Le Fay sends Jack and Annie Smith, siblings from the fictional small town of Frog Creek, Pennsylvania, on adventures and missions through a magical tree house. The spinoff Merlin Missions series saw Merlin the Magician giving Jack and Annie quests. And the Magic Tree House Fact Trackers are non-fiction looks at some of the subjects they picked up. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Magic Tree House series in 2012, Osborne created a Magic Tree House Classroom Adventures Program, providing a set of online educational resources for teachers and free books for schools. Magic Tree House: The Musical premiered in 200, toured nationally and had a cast album. A planetarium show, Magic Tree House: Space Mission, was held at the Morehead Planetarium in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Magic Tree House Kids Shows are theatrical adaptations of select titles in the Magic Tree House series designed specifically for kids' performances. The animated film Magic Tree House premiered in Japan in 2012.
