The 143-Storey Treehouse (The Treehouse Series, 11)

Product Information

As well as being our home, the treehouse is where we make books together. I write the words, and Terry draws the pictures. A word-o-matic that knows every word in the whole world has been added. It also spits out incomprehensible words which cause queries and confusion. You can test your students on each chapter to gauge their reading comprehension. During discussions, encourage questions about the topic as they go through the story. You can start a discussion about the fantasy aspect of the books by asking if these situations can really happen.

Andy writes the words for their book, and Terry does the illustrations. Andy and Terry live in a 156-story treehouse. (It used to be a 143-story treehouse, but they added 13 more levels.) It has a wishing well, a super-stinky stuff level, a bouldering alley (it’s just like bowling, except you use boulders instead of balls), an enigma engine, a TV quiz show level hosted by Quizzy the quizzical robot, and the amazing mind-reading sandwich-making machine that knows exactly what sort of sandwich you want and makes it for you. The expanded treehouse just keeps cranking out the fun with a chainsaw juggling area, a carrot launcher, a remembering booth, and so much more. There is even a detective agency equipped with a disguise. There are four steps involved to get a class discussion going about the series.
