Sitting high in the branches of a tall tree in the forest, there is a den made from pieces of wood, rope, and Grandma's old parasol. But for one child it is far 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 Guéraud and stunning visuals from graphic-novel artist Alfred, this evocative story celebrates the playful wonder of childhood.
(Ages 4 to 7 years)
“It’s an ode to solitary play, but there is no sense of loneliness. Like the text, the stunning illustrations evoke the wonder of nature and the imagination. A quiet lyrical book.”
— JUNO
“There should be more books like this.”
— Kindling
“It truly encapsulates the joy and magic of childhood. A book to share the nostalgia of your childhood and to remind us to let our children be a little wild and free in nature.”
