My Mummies Built a Treehouse

Gareth Peter is an author living in Nottingham with his partner and their two adopted children. His experience as a parent within a same-sex couple brings a fresh, funny, and sensitive perspective to parenting and family life. Izzy Evans lives in a little terraced house in rainy North London, where they pursue numerous interests from science to reading poetry. They draw inspiration from nature, mythology, and the multicultural history of their city to create their work.

Evans's energetic digital illustrations bring wonder and humor to the narrative by highlighting elements not specifically mentioned in the text, like the family cat getting into mischief and animal families thriving alongside yet just out of sight of the main characters. The family works in tandem while using their individual strengths to achieve the child's goal in this heartwarming story.
