Award-Winning Book Treehouse Rescue

A trip to the supermarket is nothing short of an adventure. On the clock, before rainfall and thunder cracking, Mike embarked on a mission that was initially to buy more peanut butter and jelly. Though while on his trail, he encountered some surprises: Mr. And Mrs. Carter the caterpillars, Mrs. Birdie and her babies, the ant crew, and copious more, all in danger for the imminent storm. Mike, despite his counted time to secure his groceries, would become their hero, leading the way to safety: his treehouse. Regardless of a pivot in his plan, the outcome was a major success.

The vibrant artwork is a real strength of the story, using watercolor and pencil in vivid, saturated colors to bring both the storm and the vulnerable animals to life for the reader. Short paragraphs, combined with complex sentence structure and vocabulary, provide a more challenging reading experience, perfect for readers who are developing toward chapter-book reading.

Treehouse Rescue is a wonderful choice for shared reading and discussions concerning small acts of kindness in the community.
