I recommend the book the 52 -storey tree - house. It is about two boys called Andy and Terry who live in a 52 storey tree house. some of the levels are a watermelon smashing room, a chainsaw juggling level, a make your own pizza parlour, a rocket powered corrupt launcher, a giant hair dryer that is so strong it practically blasts the hair right of your head, a rocking horse racetrack, a haunted house, a wave machine, a life-size snakes and ladders game with real ladders and real snakes, a 24 hours a day 7 days a week non stop punch and Judy puppet show, a remembering booth to help us remember important stuff we might have forgotten, a ninja snail training academy, a high tech detevtive agencey which has all the latest high tech detective technology like a complete set of magnifying glasses and a disgisomatic 5000 which has a disguise for every occasion.

De kinderen hebben het boek eerst gelezen. Deze serie is hier heel populair. Van mijn kinderen mogen ze meerdere boeken per jaar uitgeven. Mijn dochter zegt ook al zit ik straks op de middelbare school dan nog ga ik de vervolg delen lezen. Ik zelf begin er een beetje genoeg van te hebben, maar voor kinderen zijn het echt super boeken!

The 52 story treehouses is a very funny book. It is written by Andy Griffiths and illustrated by Terry Denton. This book is about two boys named Andy and Terry, they go on an adventure to find there manager who was kidnaped by vegetables. I think this is a good book but it is kind of boring. My favorite character is the potato king, he is may favorite because he is funny. My favorite part of the book is when the potato prince kisses Andy and Terry’s friend and she wakes up scared and doesn’t no what’s going on

یک کتاب خیلی بامزه و شیرین بود. در نهایت خنگولانگی داستان خیالی قشنگی رو از ماجراهای اندی و تری تعریف می کرد. تمام مدتی که میخوندمش به عکس هاش فکر می کردم و متن هایی که تو عکس ها بود. تمیز و دلچسب بود. حتی کارتون این دو تا رو هم تصور میکردم و ایلیا رو که وقتی میبینه قهقهه میزنه.

Terry is a boy who is silly, and Andy is a mischievous boy who is even naughtier than Terry.
Mr big nose is the boy's boss and Mr big nose has a colossal nose; well, everyone has a size of a nose that is small or big but not as big as Mr big nose. I will just a bit of some crazy rooms and sorry guys firstly the room full of chainsaws and one day the chainsaw cut one of Andy's nose and cuted of Terry's two ears.

The boys fixed the nose and the ears, I don't know how isn't that impossible?

It is the end so bye bye small noses and bye bye big noses BYEEEE.

THE ANDY I mean THE END:]:]HAPPY

Yet another seriously silly addition to the Treehouse series, the 52-Story Treehouse is a bunch of fun wrapped up in a ton of nonsense. Fans of Captain Underpants will adore the antics of Terry and Andy, whose treehouse is constrained only by the limits of their creativity. The plot in this book revolves around the disappearance of Terry and Andy’s publisher, Mr. Big Nose, and the incredibly detailed illustrations add layers of humor to the story. Be prepared, once children start reading this series, they will be hooked. Recommended for comprehensive children’s library collections.

It's been a long time since I read a treehouse book - but I enjoyed it as much as the prequels!

The book revolves around the mystery of Andy and Terry's publisher's strange disappearances - and several more mysteries sprouting out from this one. I liked this concept of connected mysteries a lot!

It was a silly interesting book full of mysteries. It is suitable for kids aged 7 and up and it is a good book for parents to read to younger children. I bet they will really enjoy it.

329 pages. This book is full of adventures with 13 more floors added since the last book. This time it has a watermelon smashing room, chainsaw-juggling level, make-your-own pizza parlor, rocket-powered carrot-launcher, giant hair dryer, rocking horse racetrack, haunted house, wave machine, life-sized snakes and ladders game, non-stop Punch and Judy puppet show, remembering booth and more…Anyway, it all goes off track when a caterpillar eats the fried egg car and Jill is sound asleep, like under a sleeping spell. Mr. Big Nose is missing and Terry and Andy jump into action. Lots of humor throughout with funny illustrations. Kids will love this series. The fun continues…Highly recommended for Grades 4-5.

کتاب خوب شروع شد ولی از اواسط کتاب دیگه یه مقدار خسته کننده شد به نظرم چون داشتم با دختر خواهرم کتاب میخوندم و هر کتابی که تموم میکردیم با هم چنج میکردیم وقتی اون داشت این کتاب رو میخوند بهش دقت کردم اون هم از اواسط کتاب مشخص بود خسته شده و دیگه داشت همینجوری رد میکرد کتاب رو... بهش گفتم خسته شدی نخون ولی مشخص بود که خسته شده از کتاب
برای بچه ای که مطالعه دوس داره یه مقداری حوصله سر بر میشه به نظرم و برای بچه ای که صرفاً دوس داره عکس ببینه شاید جذاب تر باشه

دختر خواهرم هشت ساله ست و به شدت به مطالعه علاقمنده و همپای من کتاب میخونه

Zag dit boek al eerder voorbij komen, maar nu uitgekozen om de kids voor te lezen.
En wat een goede keuze! Het boek is onderdeel van de serie van de waanzinnige boomhut, waarin er in elk boek weer 13 verdiepingen bij gezet worden.
Was lang geleden dat de kids tevreden waren met de boeken, maar nu was het raak.
De kids vonden het boek helemaal geweldig. Leuke verhaallijn met dan ook veel humor. En dan de plaatjes ter illustratie maakte het helemaal compleet.
Kortom de kids hebben ervan genoten, de verwachting is wel dat we de serie uit gaan lezen!

Review from my 7 year old: “This book was really good. My favorite part was at the end when Terry cloned himself and Andy said, ‘Terry, you idiots!’ It was so funny and I couldn’t stop laughing. I can’t pick a favorite of the Treehouse books because they are all really funny. I hope they rebuild that marshmallow machine in the next book.”

I loved it you don't have to read the books before it because it gives you a recap on what happened before hand
