About this title

Review:

"Part memoir, part biography, part self-help..."The Treehouse" is an admirable book -- a book about growing up and growing wise, about looking back so that one might move forward, about finding one's true place in life, as opposed to one's place in culture or society."
-- Beth Kephart, "Chicago Tribune"

"Naomi Wolf's portrait of her father is inspiring and heartwarming. But just as inspiring is the way The Treehouse liberates readers to find their own creativity. This book is a hard-earned gift. It is also the most transformative of Naomi Wolf's books."

-- Erica Jong
