Product Information

Andy and Terry have added yet another 13-storeys to their treehouse, making it a whopping 169 levels of awesome 🥳 This time, Terry leaves the door to the Whatever-Weather-You-Want dome open, and creates a once-in-a-millennium meteorological disaster!

When Andy and Terry began to write their book, a giant gorilla started shaking the tree yelling, “BANANA!” Then a chauffer arrives, informing Terry has won the Barky the Barking Dog drawing competition and gets to meet Barky. But squished by the giant gorilla.As the duo loses hope. 13 flying cats, lead by Silky, began fighting the gorilla. Which was successful. The canaries then lift the gorilla away. Oh! And Andy and Terry need to get home to finish writing and drawing this book! I loved how they then take us to producing this book within a book, and then a bit of a wistful good bye.😭 There are lots of laughs at every level in The 169-Storey Treehouse, the last book in the worldwide bestselling Treehouse series by Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton. At the start of the second paragraph, Mr Big Nose will call Andy and Terry to tell them the deadline of their next book as pointed out in The 39-storey Treehouse. This fantastic series finale really showcases Griffiths and Denton at their finest. Griffiths’ text is hilarious, Denton’s illustrations are exuberant, and the whole storyline is wonderfully, characteristically unhinged.While this might be the end of the Treehouse, it’s certainly not the end for Griffiths and Denton. I can’t wait to see where their wild imaginations take us next… Later, the duo began to work on their book, but Terry was too sad to concentrate. Andy then gets Terry popcorn and lemonade to cheer him up. Terry additionally got himself bubblegum. He burps a bubble which he had trap himself. Terry floats away and Andy does a golf swing which successfully saved him. Unfortunately, the hall of funhouse mirrors is also the place where their evil trouble-making twins, Anti-Andy, Terrible Terry and Junkyard Jill live in a doppelgänger mirror, and they take advantage of the confusion to escape and wreak havoc in the treehouse. This series holds a special place in my heart. From the day my young reluctant reader (now in the army 😂) came out of his room holding The 13-Storey Treehouse, asking “Mummy, do we have the next book?” — our whole set of books has been read many times over by the younger kids in the extended family.

Andy has had a long-standing collaboration with the multi-talented illustrator Terry Denton. Together they have produced theJust! series, the wildly popular The Bad Book and The Very Bad Book, the ridiculous illustrated guide What Bumosaur is That?, and the Seussian-inspired early readers The Cat on the Mat is Flat and The Big Fat Cow that Goes Kapow! Their latest book is The 13-Storey Treehouse (September 2011). The book starts with a whip-around tour of their biggest, most impressive treehouse yet. But it’s not long until things start to go awry, and Andy, Terry and Jill must use all their creativity, teamwork and problem-solving skills to set things right… Andy and Terry have added thirteen new levels and built their biggest and most astonishing treehouse yet! It has everything they - and you - could wish for including: an electric pony stable, a NOISY level, a weather dome (where you can have whatever weather you want whenever you want it), and an 100% edible gingerbread house and a potato-powered translation transmitter that allows you to talk to everything everywhere all at the same time. However, Andy is still upset with how he and Terry haven't got their book done, but Terry suggests that they write what happened that day. They write the events up and with the help of Jill in a Santa-like sleigh, get their book to Mr Big Nose for it to be published.
