On 23rd October MMXXV there will be a new album of adventures for the most famous of Gauls: Asterix in Lusitania!

One beautiful spring morning, a stranger appears in the Gaulish village. He's from Lusitania, the sun-drenched land to the west of Hispania which is also under the Roman Empire's thumb. This former slave, who first featured in The Mansions of the Gods, has come to ask our indomitable Gauls for help because he knows about the Magic Potion and its powerful effects. And so begins another adventure for Asterix and Obelix!

The 39-Storey Treehouse in colour is the third book in the bestselling Treehouse series by Andy Griffith's and Terry Denton. This laugh-out-loud story is told through a combination of text and fantastic cartoon-style illustrations - all now in full colour! Perfect for fans of Dog Man and Bunny vs. Monkey.

Andy and Terry's amazing treehouse has thirteen new levels (it used to be 13 storeys, then 26, but they keep expanding!)

They've added a chocolate waterfall you can swim in, a volcano for toasting marshmallows, a bulldozer-battling level, a baby-dinosaur-petting zoo, a not-very-merry merry-go-round, a boxing elephant called the Trunkinator, an X-ray room, a disco with light-up dance floor, the world's scariest roller coaster and a top-secret thirty-ninth level which hasn't even been finished yet!

And this year Terry has created the greatest invention that he – or anyone else – has ever invented . . . a Once-upon-a-time machine that will write and illustrate their entire book for them!

Well, what are you waiting for? Come on up!
