About this book

Best friends Andy and Terry live in a wildly expanded 26-story treehouse packed with outrageous rooms and nonstop surprises.

Fast-paced chapters, cartoons on nearly every page, and over-the-top humor make this a hit with reluctant and eager readers alike. Perfect for kids who love silly adventures and visual gags.
