As always a great, funny book packed with an outrageous, hilarious and exciting illustrated story - or should that be stories? 65 of them, in a treehouse, and more to come! My friends greatly appreciated the comical story(ies) and eagerly looks forward to the next ones. Thank you for writing them!

Time travelling via wheelie bin. Why not?
Suitably ridiculous. Easy to read. Engaging.
10yo Daughter bought it day of release and read it same day.
9yo nephew (who isn't a good reader) read it in one sitting, and then started over. He discussed the "plot" in great detail with me ('cause I'm the Aunt Who Reads"). He even dressed as Mr Bignose for the school Book Week parade.
A series that continues to hit the mark with it's young audience.

Imagination running riot
l bought this book for my 8 year-old daughter, who gives it 5 stars and said she would give it a billion stars if she could. She has read nearly every book by these authors and thinks this is the best so far. She particularly likes the news feed on every page. -
It is a very adventurous book I think that young kids would love this book
-
Funny book. My kids loved it. They are hanging out to read the next in the series, but until it is released they are determined to read all the ones we have missed.

Had to read this for a school thing, but it was still hilarious!

#dieboomhuismet65vloere – Andy Griffiths en Terry Denton
#protea
Andy en Terry is beste maats en woon in ‘n boomhuis. Saam skryf hulle snaakse boeke – soos hierdie. Andy skryf die teks Terry teken die prentjies. Aanvanklik het die boomhuis 13 vloere gehad (2018), toe 26 vloere (2019), toe 39 vloere (later in 2019), toe 52 vloere (2020) en nou, in 2021 is daar ‘n volle 65 vloere. Elke vloer is ‘n avontuur in die kleine; daar is ‘n troeteldiersalon, ‘n verjaarsdagkamer (waar dit altyd jou verjaarsdag is); ‘n dryfsandpunt; ‘n mierplaas; ‘n kamer waar oogballe ontplof; Boom TV (‘n nuuskanaal wat almal op hoogte hou van boom- en skindernuus); ‘n tydmasjien en vele meer.
Maar elke paradys het sy slang en elke boomhuis sy bou-inspekteur…… En Inspekteur Borrelplastiek soek hulle boupermit; wat hulle nie het nie, anders word die boomhuis gesloop. Daar is net een oplossing: die tydmasjien moet hulle terugneem in tyd tot net voor die bou van die boomhuis, dan kan hulle mos die permit betyds kry, of so reken hulle. Die lollery begin toe die inspekteur aandring om saam te gaan en per ongeluk die datumverstellings omverwerp.
Andy, Terry en Inspekteur Borrelplastiek ontmoet hulle voorvaders as prehistoriese skuimbolle, moet ‘n dinosourus aandurf; grotbewonders onderrig in rotskuns; voor die Farao uitvlieg tussen mummies deur en ‘n Ben Hur-tipe wedren oorleef in verskillende tydperke in die verlede. Asof dit nie erg genoeg is, beland hulle ook in die toekoms tussen HG Wells se weermag van reuse krappe voordat hulle na die boomhuis kan terugkeer.
Die boek is ‘n lywige grafiese roman van amper 400 bladsye, gemik op avontuurlustige lesers van 6 jaar en ouer. Volgens Google is die grootste verskil tussen ‘n grafiese roman en ‘n strokiesprent bloot dat eersgenoemde, soos ‘n roman, ‘n begin, middel en einde het, terwyl ‘n strokiesprent in paaiemente vertel word. In beide gevalle is daar egter ‘n ononderhandelbare vereiste: die illustrasies moet die storie onafhanklik van die teks kan vertel; andersins is dit bloot ‘n geïllustreerde roman. Hierdie boek, gemeet aan bovermelde maatstawwe, is ongetwyfeld ‘n grafiese roman. Die aanvanklike publikasie was in Engels; die Afrikaanse vertaling is deur Kobus Geldenhuys.
Ek het my in so ‘n mate in die avontuur ingeleef, dat ek nou gemotiveerd is om Wells se “Time machine’ te herlees; dit is dus beslis nie net vir jonger lesers geskik nie. Dis ‘n amusante warrelwind-avontuur in ‘n wêreld waar letterlik enigiets moontlik is. En ek verneem dat die volgende 13 vloere reeds in aanbou is……..

This one is probably my favourite treehouse book so far. I liked how Andy and Terry traveled to different times and saw themselves in the past and future.

Go on a journey with Terry and Andy as they show you around their 65 storey treehouse with a pet grooming salon, a time machine and many more rooms to come. This book is full of adventure and craziness as Andy And Terry show you around their treehouse and take you back in time in their "time machine". The 65 Storey Treehouse By Andy Griffiths and illustrated by Terry Denton was published on the 16 of August 2015. The novel is the fish instalment of the book series. Since then three more books have been released with the newest one scheduled for release in late August, 2017.
Andrew "Andy" Noel Griffiths is a 55-year-old Author specialising in comedic books. Andy is well known for multiple novel series such as the "just" series and the "bums" series. Before Andy became a world renown Author. Before Andy started writing children's books he was the lead vocalist of alternative rock bands by the name of "Gothic Barnyard" and "Ivory Coast". Andy's illustrator and long-time friend Terry Denton are renown for the family enjoyable books that is fun for all ages. The 65 Storey Treehouse best fits the description of a comedic/humour genre due to the amount of unreasonably "wacky" nature which can be depicted even through the title of the book.
The 65 Storey Treehouse has multiple time periods as it is based on the use of a "time machine" so years they visit range from the present and stretch way back to 65 million BCE. A lot of the content is set around the treehouse but other places visited throughout the book include their friend Jill's house and ancient Egypt to name a few.
The plot line is one of the best that Andy Griffiths has created in my opinion with the same follow through as the other books with the protagonist having to make a book for Mr Bignose but has also made it stand out from the other books. Andy and Terry have to travel back in time to get more content for their book and face challenges along the way that might jeopardise the time that the book was due to be given to Mr Bignose.
My favourite character in the book and throughout the entire book series is Terry due to his hilarious attitude towards everything something that also that I relate to is the sense of cowardliness that is present within the character which makes the character very humorous and is fun to follow throughout the book.
My favourite part of the book and in all of the books throughout the series is the video call with Mr Bignose. It is probably the most creatively free part of the book and is the place you can imagine the voices and play out the dialogue in your head and can really make the book that little more personal. The way it is worded is heavily dialogued which is probably the only thing that I don't like about the book. This book is highly enjoyable to the extent that I read it in one sitting. The overall theme of the book series is to finish the book for Mr Bignose which is a nice touch as the theme is shown throughout.
The 65 storey treehouse is a really enjoyable book and I highly suggest it to anyone who wants a quick read and loves a good laugh. I would suggest the book to all ages but it might be challenging to younger children. I highly suggest reading the other books in order before you read this book. -
Posle adrenalinskog trilera koji mi je dooobro naelektrisao moždane vijuge, probudio se balavac u meni u potrazi za jednom instant zabavom koja će me opustiti i razonoditi. Književni dvojac Endi Grifits i Teri Denton su pravi izbor za to 🙌😄
Junaci ovog presimpatičnog serijala Endi i Teri su dogradili nova 13 sprata na svoju kućicu na drvetu koji, kao i svi ostali spratovi, obećavaju urnebesnu zabavu.
Problem nastaje kada im na vrata zakuca građevinski inspektor Sima Pucketalo, a oni nemaju dozvolu za izgradnju jer je nespretni Teri zaboravio da je nabavi (zaista je smotan 🙄). Dvojac ulazi u Vremensku mašinu da se vrati u prošlost kako bi ispravili Terijevu grešku, međutim u vremeplov igrom slučaja upada i inspektor Sima, remeti komande, te svi ulaze u vremenski vrtlog koji će ih odvesti u najneočekivanije avanture kroz vreme, od formiranja takozvane "pračorbe" iz koje je nastao prvi život, preko doba dinosaurusa i kamenog doba, do drevnog Egipta i antičkog Rima. Čak će skoknuti i do budućnosti koja je samo naigled opasna, ali autori garantuju da je 100% bezbedna.
Šta reći za Endija i Terija osim - kreativno, zabavno i opuštajuće. Tekstualni i ilustracioni deo su kao i uvek u savršenom skladu za što bolje dočaravanje radnje. Novi spratovi su originalnih sadržaja i vrlo simpatično prate tok radnje.
Dopada mi se što je ova knjiga edukativnog karaktera, te pored dobre zabave pruža mladima i zanimljive informacije o našoj istoriji i evolutivnom poreklu poput toga šta je "pračorba" i ko su bili prvi sisari na planeti.
Jedna ogromna preporuka za ovaj autorski dvojac, pre svega najmlađim čitaocima, ali i nama balavcima u duši 😂 Čekam prevod Kućice na drvetu sa 78 spratova. 😍🙌🌳🏠 -
Who, wouldn’t want to build a tree house that has 65 levels? And one that includes an Ant house on one level, a pool of man-eating sharks on another and a sinking sand level they use as an office as they work of floatation shoes?
This book is a hilarious romp through the imagination of two men who retain their childlike view of the world. Comic book style illustrations enhance the madcap adventures of Terry and Andy when they discover that the ants can make themselves into a giant foot and stomp on them, then aided by Jill, who they shrink to ant size they find out the ants want them to stop damaging the ants home level. That’s easy to solve, isn’t it? Just stop dropping bowling balls, or shooting arrows or generally ruining the ants' nest.
Another big problem they have is that Andy gave Terry money to get a building permit six years earlier and he’s only just discovered that Terry didn’t get the building permit. That wouldn’t be so bad but the building inspector has arrived and announced that without the permit the unsafe conditions in the tree house means it will have to be demolished. How can they save their tree-house home?
Well, naturally they ask the wise owls on the upper level what to do. Then they go on a crazy adventure back in time in a Time Machine Wheelie Bin to get a permit and save their house. Nothing goes quite to plan though as they find themselves going way back in time, and then way into the future. Will they get back home and save their treehouse from being bulldozed? -
Griffiths and Denton do it again. I mean, whoever actually writes these novels must be a billionaire. For example, the writing gets lazier and lazier with a touch of lazier every book now it seems.
1st issue: The characters are idiots. Like utter complete morons. Who does the stuff these guys do? I love comedy and funny things, and these are supposed to be funny, so I guess the main thing is, WHY DON'T YOU MAKE IT FUNNY?! Honestly, it gets so tiring and boring just listening to Terry and Andy's boring same old jokes.
2nd issue: Books don't have to teach a kid anything. But a mediocre book usually teaches a kid something without even necessarily meaning to. It could be about friendship even, corny as that may sound. And it's easy enough to add a comedic aspect to those lessons. But whoever writes these books, whoever is behind that computer, does not write a plot and then what he must call "jokes". He writes his "Funny scenes" AKA "jokes" and then the plot. It's boring stuff again and again. -
Yet another bunch of floors for this amazing and intriguing tree house designed and stocked by two tween-aged boys with awesome imaginations.
My students love this series, so I wanted to see what I was missing. This is not my cup of tea, but I did laugh out loud on a couple of the antics that occur in the books I read. This book will be of interest to your students who like graphic novels, I expect. The chapters are filled with animations that connect to the story itself, a tree house rife with gadgets, gizmos, and inventions that are as outlandish as you could possibly imagine. I have a few students in mind to share this one with when I get it processed. Unfortunately, for me, this was a painful read. I may actually have no sense of humor as Griffiths is a master of humorous pranks. Buy for those students who need this kind of escape or if you need to get your graphic novel readers to check out a chapter book. -
Griffiths, Andy The 65-Story Treehouse, 376 pages. Macmillan Publishing. 2015. $13.99. Language: G (0 swears, 0 "f"); Mature Content: G; Violence: G;
In the Treehouse Book Series, Andy and Terry continually add more stories to their treehouse. They are ever trying to improve it and take on any adventure. They now have a pet salon, a room full of exploding eyeballs, an ant farm and a time machine. Will they be able to save their tree house from being demolished after the failed a safety inspection? Andy and Terry are very relatable. For fans of Dork Diaries or Big Nate, the Treehouse series is one worth giving a try. The format is a mix between chapter books and graphic novels.

I don’t know where these crazy coyotes get their ideas, but every page is a laugh. The Unbirthing Room, the Bow and Arrow Level, the Flightless Bird Forced to use a Ladder (over a small mountain of all Griffiths and Dentons’ previous books), a Newsfeed Ribbon for Tree-NN NEWS on every page, their Daring Dog Poo Disguise - and that was just the first 40 pages! Amazing antics in the Treehouse and beyond (hint: massive time travel wheelie bin alert)!
