Domino’s Tree House is a fun adventure about a boy who isn’t happy with his backyard. He would lay in the grass watching the leaves fall and became bored. He decided to build a treehouse where he could sit and enjoy it and he loved eating his snacks. He grew tired of it and he next built a cottage where he could sit by the fire and make soup. He quickly grew bored and next build a tree mansion where he could eat French cakes and slide down the handrails. He decided he needed to build a tree castle and become king over his neighborhood but he still wasn’t satisfied. He keeps building until he winds up in space. There was no good food and it was cold and lonely all the way up in space. At the end of the book, he realized how much he loved the simple life and his backyard wasn’t that bad at all.
I would recommend this delightful book to children aged 2-8. It had an excellent message about learning to enjoy where you currently are in life and how the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Each different house he built provided even more ways for him to grow unhappy. It is also a great reminder to parents that a bigger house doesn’t always equal more happiness. It tends to bring about even more challenges. I enjoyed this book and the core message of the book about enjoying the journey and living in the moment. More stuff doesn’t equivalent to being more fulfilled in life.
"I received this book free from the publisher, Hachette Book Group/Faithwords/Worthy Kids for my honest review.”
