After reading the first book in the series the second book came by as if by magic. Another humorous book by Andy Griffiths full of lemonade fountains, giant bowling alleys and millions of flavours of scrumptious ice cream.

Featured in grandma reads chapter book sessions.The adventures - free association at it's best - Andy and Terry have, with their neighbor Jill in this book center on a nefarious pirate and all the ways he can mess their lives up. Nice backstories on each of the main characters included in this romp. It took our gang a number of weeks to complete. They loved it! We are moving on, but will continue with this series - it is a favorite!

Andy and Terry don’t write their book because they have a whole other problem to deal with- PIRATES!!! in this book, neursery rhymes DO happen, and you can really look back at when Andy, Terry, and Jill met- and got captured by the horrible pirate: CAPTIAN WOODENHEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! see you there at the 26- story treehouse!

Loved it! This book would be great for kids who can read but don't have a big attention span. It looks like a novel but most of the page space is occupied by pictures. I thought the ice cream flavours (78!) were fabulous!

I thought it was a great book that had a lot of fun silly things in it. I recommend this book to people that love funny books that are pretty short and have a lot of good parts in it.

This book is just as hilarious as the 13-Storey Treehouse, although it may be a little scary for younger children. I would recommend that an adult read it first to make sure that the themes are suitable for the individual child. The drawings and the story line motivate struggling readers to engage in the process. Also, I'm not saying that it's a "boy's book," but it is nice to be able to offer something other than sports stories that appeal to boys. This is a wacky adventure tale that will make

Author: Andy Griffiths - Australian author of over 20 books concentrating on nonsense with a lot of child appeal.Illustrator: Terry Denton - Australian author and illustrator has a very popular partnership with Griffiths, but has illustrated books for others including Paul Jennings, Mem Fox and Gillian Rubinstein.(Apparently this is the second book about the Treehouse - "The 13-Storey Treehouse" was published in 2011. We didn't feel any loss having read "26 Storey Treehouse" first).Some of the b...

This book was a great book I recommend it to 7 year olds (very funny). This book starts of with Andy telling us about the treehouse. Then he gets this call which tells him he needs to write a book by next Friday. So he wants to tell the story of how they met (Andy and Terry ), but he is intrupted and terry tells him the sharks are sick because they happened to eat Terry's underpants. So they call Jill and she fixed the Sharks and out of one came the head of Captin Wodenhead. So they started to t...

I gave the first book 3 stars because I enjoyed it, and I think it is a fun book to read when you just don't want to read something heavy, or when you want to read something quick. This book is def written for kids, but this series, I am not so sure since there's pretty vulgar illustration. Nothing bloody though but kind of bit too much for kids in my opinion.I actually like this one better than the first one. But I don't know, I don't love it. However, there's something about this series that k...

This is the adventurous sequel to The 13-Storey treehouse and starring the main characters Terry and Andy and having to deal with an invasion of pirates to their home. The illustrations at times were funny but also a little gory, which was actually quite disappointing to see. Some younger readers may like that but again, some may not. It was OK but personally didn't leave me as fulfilled as I would have liked. I won't be carrying on with the series!

My first buddy read with my gorgeous 9 year old daughter and we both loved it. It made us both laugh and just seeing my daughter enjoy a book so much made it even more special. Lots of stories within the story and loved that the last chapter was called ‘The Last Chapter’.

My copy is An ARC I received from a parent. It's the story of how Andy and Terry, the author and illustrator "met". It's full of crazy adventures and laugh out loud fun. Their 26-story tree house includes a bumper car game, shark tank and ice rink. My favorite is the anti-gravity chamber and the automatic marshmallow machine that shoots marshmallows into your mouth. Now add some rowdy pirates and you have a book I know a lot of my students will enjoy. It's written in a chapter book format with g...

I found _The 13-Storey Treehouse_ for my kids last summer, and they have been bugging me to find this sequel ever since. I finally got it from the library for them, and they each plowed through it immediately (and were delighted that it appears there will be a 39-Storey Treehouse some day). My 9 year old daughter said that I "had to read it." :-)So I did. It's certainly geared for kids. It's just the right kind of silly to appeal completely. Did it do a lot for me? Well... no. But it wasn't writ...

I read this book (and The 13-Storey Treehouse) with my son. He had just turned five and the book was so thoroughly hilarious to both him and me. As was the case with The 13-Storey Treehouse, he felt somewhat uneasy about certain plot points (the mermaid and such). The book is marketed for older kids, but when my boy found it, there was no leaving Barnes and Noble without it. On the other hand, it is simply stunning how funny spelling errors are at this age. I am not sure older kids would find it...

Strangely enough this is listed as a "middle grade" book by SLJ, I'd say it's firmly in the realm of Grades 3-4, and particularly for reluctant boy readers. It's image heavy and you're drawn along the plot line with short sentences and at the most a paragraph per page.It's clever and funny and very imaginative - exactly how young children's minds work. Could be used for a unit on story telling by teachers as with little text you can get the point across without the class having to read a lot.An

26-Storey TreehouseThe winning team combination of whacky words from Griffiths, and laugh aloud cartoon black line drawings from Denton, have once again produced the magic we have come to expect from this duo. In this sequel to the highly popular 13 Storey Treehouse, we find that there have been a few modifications to the already outlandish structure. There’s ordinary additions like a skate ramp and a dodgem car arena, but there are also added extras like the maze of doom and an ice-cream servin...

This sequel to The 13-Story Treehouse tells the story of each of the main characters and how they all met. Most of it’s even true! But it’s not that straight forward either because emergencies keep happening, like the sharks in the treehouse’s shark pool eating Terry’s underpants and getting very sick. Thank goodness that Jill can come over and try to have them feeling snappy again soon. Then of course no story is complete without a villain and Captain Woodenhead, the evil pirate makes a great o...

This one is definitely little boy humor. Meaning poop is involved but thankfully the story is not quite as blatant as I'm being. I did mutter to myself "eewwww, that's disgusting..." once or twice. I couldn't stop thinking about how boys would probably read this book and giggle (or whatever the boy equivalent is) and force their friends to read it after. Lots of unrealistically funny things go on (ok, I'll admit I did laugh out loud in some parts) and although I didn't think I'd like this book v...

I thought this was even better than the first book. And others seem to agree with me, because there are 26 more stories coming in two more sequels. I appreciate the little things like the infinite page 326. Great stuff in here. There is enough humor in this series to make it interesting beyond any specific reading level. (I can say that because I was interested and might be past the reading level of this book.) This is great if you are 7 or 8 or if you need a quick break from the deep thoughts o...

Andy and Terry have added 13 more storeys to their treehouse including an anti-gravity chamber, an ATM Automatic tattoo machine, an ice cream parlour with Edward Scooperhands and a maze of doom no-one has ever returned from.The story begins with sick sharks because Terry tried to wash his underpants in the tanks and the sharks ended up eating them. While Jill tries to fix them Andy and Terry begin telling the story how they metThis book is jam packed with more hilarious illustrations, plenty of
