Up in the Tree

Two children rejoice in their home up in a tree, free from parental guidance and earthbound concerns.

This facsimile edition captures all the charm of the original, and makes a thoughtful gift for Atwood fans as well as for young readers.Atwood, Margaret is the author of 'Up in the Tree ' with ISBN 9780888997296 and ISBN 0888997299.
