Review by Library Journal Review

Did your childhood include a tree house? Do you wish it had? David and Jeanie Stiles (coauthors, Storage Projects You Can Build) can help you build the tree house of your child's dreams. They carefully outline planning considerations and pay keen attention to methods of attachment to the tree. Step-by-step instructions walk builders through basic designs. A proliferation of black-and-white line drawings illustrates instructions, placement, and technique, and a photo gallery shows off the finished projects. No trees? No problem, with one treeless and four playhouse designs. Essential. (c) Copyright 2010. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
