This Is My Treehouse

by Guillaume Gueraud (Author)

This Is My Treehouse
Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade

Discover a secret hideaway built from dreams and imagination in this stunning and special book that will leave readers longing for a treehouse of their own.

Sitting high in the branches of a tall tree in the forest, there is a den made from bits of wood, and rope, and Grandma's old parasol. But for one child it is much, much more - it's a castle, a pirate ship, an igloo, a plane. A place to dream.

Joyful and lyrical, This is My Treehouse observes the endless adventures our imaginations can take us on, and the sanctuary offered by a space to call our own. With tender text from award-winning author Guillaume Gueraud, and stunning visuals from graphic novel artist Alfred, this evocative story celebrates the playful wonder of childhood.

'A celebration of one of those rare spaces that belong entirely to kids.' --Betsy Bird, School Library Journal
