I loved this book so much I made a design of an ice cream with it as it's theme! It was hilarious!!! I loved the fact that there were spy cows on every page!

I thought I'd give this e-book a try, as I was so absolutely charmed by Neil Gaimen's "Fortunately, the Milk." The 78-Storey Treehouse is based on two kids, Andy and Terry that live in this mega treehouse. This is the 6th installment, but I this time wanted to see the later version. Andy Griffith, author, and Terry Denton, illustrator, are the minds behind that unique concept of idea. I chose ebook this time so I could see the artwork that they are known for.
The illusrations to me are somewhat slapstick, but with enough detail that we know what is going on. All in black and white ink work is was ok clever for this piece. From what I've learned, folks thought this book was better than the prior one, as this one is based on a movie being made in their treehouse. We hope things go smoothly, you and I both know it doesn't. They must love cows, as every picture seems to have a part of a cow in it. Are there a lot of cows in Austrailia? That is where these guys are from, and I've also read that this book is the highest seller there at the time this book came out.
They are quite fun in their descriptions with illustrations to back them up. I never did see an outside visual of what the house would look like. They just keep building more and more levels. It has a drive-thru car wash, a courtroom with a robot judge called Edward Gavelhead, a scribbletorium, a combining machine (still haven't figured what that is--any help welcome), an ALL-BALL sports stadium, a high security potato chip storage facility, and an open-air movie theatre with a super-giant screen...which is most useful as they are in the throws of making a movie!
There are spoils upcoming that are a quite entertaining. Hope you enjoy. Better slow down, as rest is spoilers. Enjoy. Great chapter book! Recommend for all ages 70-5 YO. I'm on the upper tier and enjoyed it a fair amount. Rate: 3.5 Stars.
PS: This has been rumbling in my head. I'm a huge fan of Andy Griffith Senior, you know Mayberry, son Opie (Ron Howard), Aunt Bee, and crazy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) and Gomer! Wondering if Andy above could be Son of Andy Senior. If you know anything about this, please let me know. Thx!!

Even gekeken wat mijn zoontje van 11 leest; een boek over een waanzinnige boomhut van 78 verdiepingen in een kleine 400 pagina's. Meer tekeningen dan tekst. Vooral grappig en soms erg leuk bedacht, bij het krankzinnige af. Boek begon fris van de lever, maar het duurde te lang, met te veel herhaling waardoor het verhaal gaandeweg verbleekte.

De Waanzinnige Boomhut gaat over Andy en Terry, zij wonen in een boomhut en schrijven ook boeken. Het verhaal gaat dus over een boomhut met allemaal verdiepingen. In elk boekdeel komen er 13 verdiepingen bij.
De Waanzinnige Boomhut is echt een leuk boek vol avontuur (niet super spannend boek) en héél erg grappig! In deel 1 is er bijvoorbeeld de verdieping met een bowlingbaan, een doorzichtig zwembad en een aquarium met mens etende haaien.
Toppie, Floppie of Mwa?
TOPPIE!

Author: Andy Griffiths
Illustrator: Terry Denton
First Published: August 2016
Length: 376 pages (paperback)
Series: Book 6
Apparently the fastest-selling Australian book, outselling The 65-Storey treehouse and Matthew Reilly. It really is lovely to see a book that appeals to young readers, male and female, does so well.
Sadly, it isn’t my favourite. I found it slow and not as LOL as previous books.
Basically, instead of writing their book they’re making a movie. But Andy feels excluded from the process, Terry is the star, and hijinks ensue.
On the plus side, it once more will appeal to young readers, encouraging visual and verbal literacy. Terry and Andy explore writing your autobiography, an interesting teaching lesson, as well as just letting your imagination go and the ridiculous spurt on the page.
These books work. They have a market; they sell. But they also encourage reading without delving into violence, toilet humour or overdone morality. A great gateway reader for moving into chapter books.
Still worth reading. Still going strong. Still appealing to the young audience without annoying the grown-ups.
It’s all good.

I must be honest, I found this book a bit disappointing. This book is one of a series of books about two boys who live in a treehouse which has lots of different and interesting areas of interest all housed on a different story. Each book adds additional storeys, each with its own activity and/or concept for enjoyment by a young boy. This idea was really interesting and fun and we did like it. This particular story is about a movie director, Mr Bigshot, who comes to the treehouse to make a film. He excludes Andy, one of the main characters, from the film. This is a source of great agitation for Andy and he sets off on his own to make the best of things by himself with all sorts off disastrous results for the film making process. The illustrations were lovely but what I didn't like about the book was that the story seemed quite disjointed at times. Characters and ideas flitted in and out, seemingly out of nowhere, and I didn't understand their purpose or contribution to the story. My son, Michael, aged ten enjoyed it but I felt that might have a lot to do with the fact there are lots of pictures and the text is fairly minimalistic. I don't think I will be reading the other books in this series.

I am still not entirely sure why I am even reading these books. :P On the one hand they are funny, and I quite love the idea of a treehouse like this (I wouldn't mind having one myself, though I would get rid off most of the animals and the clones). But on the other hand, the characters are just horrible. And horrible towards friends (like how Andy was shunned by both Terry and Jill in this one). I felt really sorry for Andy in this one.
The ending was hilarious though, and I was cheering for Andy.
I also liked that on almost every page you could see a part of a cow. At first you have no clue why, but then something happens, and it is just a delight to scroll back and find the cows.
Illustrations are so-so.
I guess I will still check out the next one. :P

Førsteinntrykk
Så langt e har kommet så syntes e den er heilt grei.
Starten syntes e at de burde ha snakket litt mer om de.
Sjangeren er barn/ungdom, komedie og spenning.
Sjangertrekkene er robot dommer og trehus med 75 etasjer så langt e har kommet.

Were it not for the cows and the courtroom drama, I would have rated this book three stars. The completely artificial separation of Andy and Terry does nothing except make them act completely out of character.

This was better than the last book. In this one, a movie is being made of Andy and Terry in their treehouse. You think everything goes smoothly... of course it doesn't!! Lots of hijinks ensue and it all comes together at the end... well kinda. Love the illustrations and of course the story.

A great formulae for readers who love a giggle.
