The 13-Storey Treehouse - The Treehouse Series (Paperback)
Andy Griffiths (author), Terry Denton (illustrator)Published: 29/01/2015
With its marshmallow machine and boxing elephant known as the Trunkinator, join Andy and Terry on a side-splittingly surreal tour around their spectacular treehouse.
The 13-Storey Treehouse is the first book in Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton's wacky treehouse adventures, where the laugh-out-loud story is told through a combination of text and fantastic cartoon-style illustrations.
Andy and Terry live in the WORLD'S BEST treehouse! It's got a giant catapult, a secret underground laboratory, a tank of man-eating sharks and a marshmallow machine that follows you around and shoots marshmallows into your mouth whenever you're hungry! Just watch out for the flying cats, or the mermaids, or the sea monsters pretending to be mermaids, or the giant mutant mermaid sea monster... oh, and, whatever you do, don't get trapped in a burp-gas-filled bubble!
Well, what are you waiting for? Come on up!

MEDIA REVIEWS
'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
'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. A sequel was published last year in Australia and can't arrive soon enough.' - Publishers Weekly
'Full of crazy, funny pictures, which will make you laugh... extremely enjoyable, very funny and easy to read!' - Guardian
