Laugh-out-loud wacky adventures in the world's MOST AWESOME treehouse! The third instalment in this hilarious and highly illustrated series will appeal to fans of Captain Underpants and Wimpy Kid.
Andy Griffiths is Terry's best mate. He is also
Australia's number-one children's author. His books, including the
popular Treehouse series, have been hugely successful
internationally, winning awards and becoming bestsellers in the UK
and the USA as well as in his homeland, Australia. Andy thrives on
having an audience: he has worked as a high-school teacher, been
the lead singer in a rock band and a stand-up comedian. He is a
passionate advocate for literacy, has two daughters and lives in
Melbourne, Australia.
Terry Denton is Andy's best mate. He is also a bestselling
and award-winning writer and illustrator based in Melbourne,
Australia. Among other things, he worked on the Horrible Science
series. He lives by the beach with his wife and three kids.
With its slapstick humour, brilliant absurdities and some bonus
puzzles to solve at the back of the book, The 13-Storey Treehouse
is the best 'tall story' you'll read this year!
*Lancashire Evening Post on 13-Storey Treehouse*
Longtime collaborators Griffiths and Denton (Killer Koalas from
Outer Space) get metafictional in their latest book (first
published in Australia), and the result is anarchic absurdity at
its best... Denton's manic cartooning captures every twist and turn
in hilarious detail, as babies are pelted with garbage, yapping
dogs squashed, and monkeys catapulted into the distance.
*Publishers Weekly, on 13-Storey Treehouse*
Full of crazy, funny pictures, which will make you laugh . . .
Extremely enjoyable, very funny and easy to read!
*Guardian.com*
Especially good for reluctant readers as it is heavily illustrated
and VERY funny . . . This really is the coolest treehouse ever!

Packed with cartoons and craziness
*Sunday Express*
This book is about friends Andy and a Terry that live in a really
cool 13-storey treehouse, with cool things like a bowling alley,
games room and secret lab . . . The friends get up to some crazy
things, an enjoyable book.
*Toppsta Reviewer, on 13-Storey Treehouse*
My son absolutely adores this whole series of books. They are
hilariously funny but so imaginative and creative. I've recommended
them to so many people and haven't yet found a child who doesn't
love them. This first book sets the scene with Andy and Terry - the
characters and authors/illustrators - living in a treehouse with 13
stories who are meant to be writing a book but keep getting
distracted by an endless stream of hilarious madness.
*Toppsta Reviewer*
It's funny, hugely imaginative and has LOTS of pictures. What child
would not want a treehouse with see-through swimming pool, lemonade
fountain, games room, bowling alley and marshmallow machine?
*Toppsta Reviewer, on 13-Storey Treehouse*
Brilliant series and if you haven't read them yet why not? Start at
the beginning and work through them all. Laugh out loud funny and I
love reading about all the things they have in their treehouse.

My son read this book solidly in one day. He has LOVED it, the mix
of text and illustrations is ideal for this age range, I could hear
him laughing away to himself whilst he was reading it . . . A
fabulous buy that will be read time and time again.
*Toppsta Reviewer*
This is silly and fun and a great book to encourage of love of
reading in young children. I read this to my 5 year old daughter
and months later she still makes reference to a scene in the
book.
