3rd Grade

13-Story Treehouse, Andy Griffiths

Like a lot of kids, my oldest loves graphic novels, and this one was no exception. He used this book in third grade for his nightly independent reading, and then enthusiastically continued on with the others in the series into fourth grade. The main characters are two friends – Andy and Terry (the same names as the series author and illustrator) who live in an out-of-this-world treehouse and write books together.  They also have an animal-loving friend, Jill, who joins in periodically. The hilarious adventures take place in and around the treehouse, which features a bowling alley, swinging vines, a secret underground laboratory and more! Recommended for independent reading.
