Book excerpt: Remember the view from atop a tree? You could survey the landscape like a monarch, escape your parents' watchful eye, and let your imagination run wild. Well, just because you've grown up, it doesn't mean you can't enjoy the sense of liberation a tree provides. Here is the most comprehensive guide ever to building your own castle in the air, be it a simple child's playhouse or an adult's cozy retreat with all the modern conveniences, including electricty. Peter Nelson, the nation's foremost authority on treehouses, tells you everything you need to know about designing and building the house that's right for you and your family. He gives you information on site selection (why some trees provide better homes than others), safety issues, tree care, advice on styles and materials, and other essential rules of thumb that will save time and money. Nelson walks you through the construction of four actual projects: a children's playhouse, a vacation home, an office, and a full-time residence. Whether you'd like to build your children a safe and fun place to play and dream, or you're contemplating your own retreat from the drudgeries of earthbound living, this practical, wildly fanciful guide will show you how to make your tree fantasies come true.

Book excerpt: In this delightful exploration of the seasons in nature, an oak tree and its animal inhabitants change and grow over the course of a year — just like their human neighbors! A large oak tree stands near an empty house. Like the house, it provides shelter and a place to raise a family. From its branches to its roots, six animals share the tree as a home. We follow the tree and the animals — a raccoon, opossum, acorn weevil, gray squirrel, blue jay, chipmunk — through the four seasons. Meanwhile, in the illustrations, we watch as a human family moves into the empty house, grows and adapts over time. Trees and animals — including humans! — follow life cycles across the seasons. Kids will love exploring nature’s parallel lives.

Download or read book The Treehouse Book written by Peter Nelson and published by Universe. This book was released on 2000-07-07 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems that almost everyone likes treehouses. Smiles of recognition turn into grins of enthusiasm as more people discover them and dream about making their own private retreats or family play spaces. And it's nice to remind ourselves that treehouses are built into the oldest and most forgiving, living things on earth. Also, history records treehouses as being built as deliberate follies, as challenges for arboreal designers, for merrymaking, and for keeping the spirit of fairy tales alive. But treehouses can also be social places. We will visit many that were built to entertain, to hang out with friends, or as guest houses. Trees come in all types. Master treehouse builders Peter and Judy Nelson, with David Larkin, have embarked on yet another treehouse-discovery expedition across America, this time adding the investigation of backyard playhouses to their agenda. Now, in The Treehouse Book, they reveal their findings, illustrated and described in the most complete volume yet. From casual treeshacks made from discarded lumber to multitiered feats of fancy, they found shelters representing myriad builders--interesting characters ranging from childhood fanatics grown up, to weekend carpenters, to those who want their grandkids to have the best clubhouse on the block. Detailed how-to information, including plans and drawings, is woven with behind-the-scenes tales of each structure's occupants and stunning interior and exterior photographic exploration.

Book excerpt: Home at the Tree of Life is a groundbreaking book that sheds light on the mysteries of consciousness, life and death, and the underlying causes of many physical and mental conditions. It presents four people's extraordinary journeys of self-discovery and healing from severe disorders (depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, insomnia) attained without prescription medication. Dr. Gabor's pioneering techniques for exploring the subconscious and superconscious levels of the mind helped her clients open new and unexpected doors into the fascinating realms of past lives and the afterlife, and to gain access to the universe where all souls are originated from (referred to as Home in this book) and to the Source of Life. In this book you will find answers to questions such as: Who are we? Why don't we remember where we came from? What is our purpose on Earth? What are diseases and how can we heal ourselves? Why is there suffering on Earth? What happens during sleep? Where do we go after the physical death, what does that universe look like and what do we do there? What is the difference between soul and spirit? Who are Spiritual Guides and what is their purpose? Who or what is The Source or God and how can we access God? Where does the increased number of souls come from? What is the future of our planet? "This is a brilliant book. Not only is it a therapeutic work that is infinitely helpful in showing you how to heal and remove significant life obstacles, but it is also a book of cosmic wisdom, the proportions of which give you answers to the most important issues of human existence." -Marilyn Gordon, B.C.Ht and author of Realize your Greatness "Dr. Gabor's book is one of the most honest books on healing, reincarnation and the afterlife." -Theodoros Kousouli, D.C., C.Ht.

Download or read book The Home Tree written by Stephen R. Little and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having a home and having connections to family. These are some of life's most basic values and needs. When times get tough, even those who have left seeking a new life of their own often return to their roots and find comfort and security. Some animals in The Home Tree left their long-time family home. But when something happened beyond their control, they sought safety and community ... and ended up right where their ancestors started. The Home Tree is a sweet story about small animals in a forest, with stunningly beautiful illustrations that pre-school children will love. While they enjoy the story book, they will learn the strength and security of family and community. The important themes of sharing and cooperation are also woven into the short text that children will want to hear again and again. The Home Tree was created when the author (elected mayor of Marion, NC in 2009) held his toddler daughters in the front porch swing at home near the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina. This bed-time story was many years later put in writing, with magnificent customized illustrations by a young man who teaches elementary school in Texas. You and your child will love The Home Tree.
Download or read book The Home Tree written by Catherine Durant Voorhees and published by Author House. This book was released on 2012-02-25 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixteen-year-old Jerusha Shurtleff and her 18-year-old sister, Orrillia, live with their family on a prosperous farm. Unfortunately, their home is located on a contested strip of land between the Vermont border and "British North America." Like the Shurtleffs, most of the American residents are confident that the boundary dispute will be resolved in the United States' favor. Imagine their shock and dismay when they learn in 1834 that the land has been ceded to Great Britain. All residents must either show official ownership of their properties or repurchase them from the British crown. Jerusha 's family can do neither, so they are evicted from the only home they have ever known. Jerusha and Orrillia face many challenges: they are separated from their family and forced to work in a textile mill where their faith and courage are tested by long hours and perilous conditions. Worse, they do not hear from their father for over a year and presume him dead. Join Jerusha and Orrillia as they embark on their brave quest to reunite with their family, a trek that takes them across America at the dawn of its Industrial Age.
