The 13-Storey Treehouse (The Treehouse Books) (The Treehouse Series, 1)

Product Information

Andy and Terry have added thirteen new levels and built their biggest and most astonishing treehouse yet! It has everything they – and you – could wish for including: an electric pony stable, a NOISY level, a weather dome (where you can have whatever weather you want whenever you want it), and an 100% edible gingerbread house and a potato-powered translation transmitter that allows you to talk to everything everywhere all at the same time. Frank Cottrell-Boyce is hands-down one of my favourite children’s authors; his work has a lot in common with that of early Morris Gleitzman. A former winner of the Carnegie medal, Cottrell-Boyce’s novels are adventures with a touch of Dahlian absurdity, along with emotionally affecting tales of friendship, family and the complex lives of kids. Boyce’s most recent release, Runaway Robot, does not disappoint. This story is of Alfie, a lonely young boy who spends most of his time loitering at the airport, and Eric, the 6ft 2in clumsy robot with super strength that he discovers in lost property. This is sure to satisfy old and new readers, and ideal for Treehouse fans looking to stretch themselves with something more text-heavy.

When Andy and Terry began to write their book, a giant gorilla started shaking the tree yelling, “BANANA!” Then a chauffer arrives, informing Terry has won the Barky the Barking Dog drawing competition and gets to meet Barky. But squished by the giant gorilla.As the duo loses hope. 13 flying cats, lead by Silky, began fighting the gorilla. Which was successful. The canaries then lift the gorilla away. There are also other theatre adaptations of previous books in the series: The 13-Story Treehouse and The 26-Story Treehouse. The adaptation is targeted to children between the ages of 6 and 12 and the adults that come with them.
