"Terry Treetop Finds New Friends" by Tali Carmi is a story about a boy named Terry. Terry loved to climb trees so much, that everybody called him Terry Treetop! One day his dad built him a treehouse, where he could see forever, but he was sad when he realized he didn't have any friends who could play with him in his treehouse.Terry went around to all the different farm animals, asking if they wanted to come and play in his treehouse, but one by one they all told him they had work to finish before they could play. Terry was so sad that he just decided to forget about finding a friend, and turned around to go home. Suddenly he heard someone calling for help! "Help! Help! Somebody help me!" Terry heard.All the other animals also heard the cry for help, but when they all gathered around the source of the cries, none of them could do anything to help. Only Terry was able to offer help and save the poor animal in distress. Soon all the animals wanted to play with Terry, and even had a picnic at his house, in honor of him saving the animal in distress.This is a cute story, and sure to be loved by many children. The illustrations are vividly colored, and the animals all are anthropomorphically cute, with big eyes and pleasant expressions. This story will be a popular addition to your child's book collection, and one I recommend heartily.
