I am still not entirely sure why I am even reading these books. :P On the one hand they are funny, and I quite love the idea of a treehouse like this (I wouldn't mind having one myself, though I would get rid off most of the animals and the clones). But on the other hand, the characters are just horrible. And horrible towards friends (like how Andy was shunned by both Terry and Jill in this one). I felt really sorry for Andy in this one.
The ending was hilarious though, and I was cheering for Andy.
I also liked that on almost every page you could see a part of a cow. At first you have no clue why, but then something happens, and it is just a delight to scroll back and find the cows.
Illustrations are so-so.
I guess I will still check out the next one. :P
