"In the Tree House" -Andrew Larsen

I judge books by their covers, I openly admit it. In the Tree House is not a book I would pick up for the bland title or hem-haw artwork. However, the cover caught my attention and the story taught a wonderful lesson about community and sibling friendship.

A boy and his brother move into a new house and they build a tree house. As the brother hangs out with his friends, the boy entertains himself. When the power goes out, the brother returns to the tree house to rediscover the fun he had hanging out with his brother.

  1. I am highly amused by the concept of not choosing a book by it's cover. HOW ELSE am I to judge what I want?
