I work part time in a well known booksellers and read this as part of 'research' to be able to make recommendations in children's books .This was a funny read and I believe the whole series to be similar , good illustrations and light hearted for younger readers
The Bud told me I needed to give this book "every star," so I did.5 stars for kid humor and appeal!
For a kids book without any kids, it's pretty funny. My kid loved it, then a few days later asked for the next one in the series.
First and foremost, we should admit that this book was not written for me. It was written for kids and me not liking it really only means that I don't fall into the demographic that it was aimed at. I bought this book for my nephew's birthday, though, and I wanted to know what I was giving him after the bookstore ladies suggested it to me.Now that we've gotten my disclaimer out of the way, I still have a few complaints about the book. 1) It might be old-fashioned of me, but I think that books fo...
BOOK #4 READ FOR BELIEVATHON ROUND 2.Not going to even bother with a proper review for this one. this book is so stupid, it's hilarious. like at first i was hating it because of how stupid it was but then i'd find myself CACKLING LIKE A BANSHEE so???????
This is a terrific book, especially for young boys who mistakenly think that they don't like to read. It's also a nice treat for an adult who likes to read with kids. The book is silly, funny, and interesting from beginning to end, and the illustrations add to the excitement. I read this book with one of my 4th grade students, and he was enthralled. I had that student write a letter to the author and illustrator about how much he enjoyed the book, and he received a hand-written note and a signed...
Read this with my eldest son and we were laughing-out-loud at the silliness of these two characters and what they got up to in the book. Love read-a-longs with my boys.
A perfectly silly book ( series of 3, I believe) for that semi- reluctant Summer reader who is an 8-9 year old boy and needs to get back into " school mode." Half book - half comic book ( lots of pictures) this is just the ticket to rekindle interest. Thumbs up from my Grandson who of course exchanges reading time for screen time. 4 stars
The cover and title of this book are so promising, but the story was quite a disappointment. Two guys live in a really cool treehouse and have some really cool things, but after the "tour" in the first few pages, it's pretty much a book about two guys who are supposed to be writing a book, which ends up being the book we are now reading. A bit too meta for the audience, but not even in an interesting way. Predictable, simplistic, and read like a slacker's attempt at an essay for school that was
I am sad to say that 2 stars might even be generous for this juvenile romp. Basically, two guys live in a cool treehouse, with fun rooms and gadgets. But, they are lazy slackers, who are supposed to have written a book for a publisher, have done nothing, and have no idea how they are going to deliver results when weird stuff starts happening. Do yourself a big favor, skip this one in favor of Roald Dahl or David Walliams.
*https://mrsbbookreviews.wordpress.comPublished in 2011, The 13-Storey Treehouse is the series opener and the book that paved the way for future instalments of the book chart breaking ‘treehouse’ series. In this first edition of the bestselling series, Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton introduce the reader to their magnificent tree house. While trying to write a book for their pushy publisher, the dynamic duo find that they keep getting sidetracked by a range of madcap situations. The 13-Storey Tr...

Very humorous with plenty of fun cartoons. Wouldn't you love to join Andy and Terry in a 13-Storey Treehouse. Anything can happenin the treehouse. Drinking from a lemonade fo...
This book happened around the time I gave up stuffing The Secret Seven down my son's throat. I mean, I read them, why wouldn't he? It dawned on me that I had a Reluctant Reader on my hands. So imagine my amazement when he not only took it to bed with him, he asked for The 26-Storey Treehouse over and over again!I resisted the Wimpy Kid Wave because I picked it up once, and found it rather rude and disrespectful to adults. This book is actually in the same genre but it had my sister and I in stit...
Andy and Terry live in the most awesome tree house you ever saw. First of all it has 13 stories complete with a bowling alley, shark tank, lemonade fountain, game room and a see through swimming pool.The 2 boys write children’s books and their next book is due to the publisher tomorrow and they haven’t even started it yet. Andy writes the words and Terry illustrates the pictures! But lately they have been too distracted with turning their neighbor’s cat into a canary, hatching sea-monkeys that t...
I read this book to my 6 1/2 year old son. Whilst I thought some parts of the story were over his head and some of the language not appropriate, we really enjoyed it and loved all the twists and turns in the day of a life of Andy and Terry living in a 13 Storey Treehouse. We loved how the cat got painted yellow and turned into a canary and flew away and also how the sea monkeys which weren't sea monkeys turn into a mermaidia and then into a sea monster. A recommended read. Thanks to Netgalley fo...
This book was awesome. I really loved how the two main characters, Andy and Terry, are so different but seem to get along so well. They really do cause alot of trouble and some how seem to get out of it!! I cannot wait to read the others in the series.
Drivel.Nonsense.Put Capt. Underpants in the penthouse and then take the elevator down to the basement and you will find Andy and Terry in their swanky treehouse. 2 grown menliving in a 13-story treehouse (which I have to admit is pretty awesome)tell a lie and a truth and the truth cancels out the lie -- right?get married by exchanging a kiss (which illustrator Terry does with a mermaid)1 hungry sea monster posing as a mermaida monkey invasion that trashes the placea cat painted yellow who sprout...
Review by Jack, age 6.5It was excellent, it was very, very, very good.It was awesome because it had man-eating sharks and a shark nearly ate Terry. Terry accidently threw Andy's head in the bowling alley. After they ate too many marshmallows they drank too much lemonade from the lemonade fountain.Their treehouse is awesome because it looked small from the outside but is big on the inside. There was a gorilla and a yellow canary cat with a whole army of yellow canary cats who saved Andy and Terry...
One of the most ridiculous books I’ve ever read, SO funny and the illustrations truly add to the story. Metafictional too, which I totally didn’t expect 😂
Brings my inner child out to the max!!
