The 117-Storey Treehouse

Number 9 in the series (but you can read them in absolutely any order!)

What’s the Story?

Our 117-Storey treehouse now has 13 new storeys, including a tiny-horse level, an Underpants Museum and the terrifying DOOR OF DOOM! In this book Terry takes over the narration and tells a really dumb story about dots, which is so dumb we end up having to go on the run from the Story Police who want to arrest us for crimes against storytelling. Along the way we meet famous children’s writers Beatrix Potty, Boris Bendback and Dr Moose.

Reviews

‘What Griffiths and Denton do in fact is whatever occurs to them. Anything that has come into their heads appears to be thrown on to paper … so the pages are filled with nonsense … a work bursting with fun’

Dutch Reviewer

‘If you know any young fans of wild, goofy humour, they absolutely must check out The 117-Story Treehouse. The Treehouse books are a perfect balance of minimal text, maximum black-and-white drawings packed with jokes, and unbelievable amounts of nonstop action, gags, and exuberant anarchic storytelling. These books seem ideally designed to make a new reader feel—and be—successful.’
