Customer Reviews

Exciting and inspirational
As a total novice with no DIY experience, I found this book inspirational. There are step-by-step plans for creating both simple and ambitious structures, which encouraged me to get out and try them. I'm currently half way through my first simple treehouse, and already planning the next one! The tone is great; it gives simple instructions with clear pictures, but is never patronising and it assumes no limits to your ability. I'd really recommend this for both children and adults.

great book
Finally I found an instructional book, well-written, very practical, clear and complete, that helped me through the entire process of conceiving and then building the play structures for my kids from A to Z.
There is nothing missing, even detailed drawings and step-by-step instructions. I warmly recommend this book to anyone who is inexperienced but has the ambition to finally 'do it yourself'.

How to build treehouses, huts and forts.
