Lilliput Play Homes Releases Children’s Book in Honor of Company’s 30th Anniversary
Finleyville, PA — Lilliput Play Homes is pleased to announce the release of a children’s picture book in conjunction with the 30th anniversary of the company’s founding. “Lilliput: The Big Story of a Little House” chronicles the journey of a young girl and the lifelong connection between her and her backyard playhouse. The story draws inspiration from the real life founding of Lilliput Play Homes, when in 1989, unable to find a playhouse special enough for his daughter, Stephen Chernicky decided to create a beautifully handcrafted playhouse that resembled a Victorian mansion. Thus, the magic of Lilliput Play Homes was born.
Lilliput Play Homes, now celebrates 30 years of providing lifetime memories for children all over the world. In their Finleyville, PA workshop, the Lilliput team proudly builds high quality indoor and outdoor playhouses, and the company has become a leading authority on playhouse design and construction. What started as one man’s mission to create an enchanting world of imagination for his little daughter has turned into a booming business of international proportions.
The company employs 25 craftsmen, artisans and support staff that create amazing playhouses for families and businesses around the world. The company has been featured in a variety of media including The Oprah Winfrey Show, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal and many more.

They have created these attractions for play centers, hotels, museums, libraries, child-cares and early learning centers on nearly every continent.
The new children’s book aims to capture that magic. The story unfolds as a father builds a playhouse for his daughter and then watches as a girl journeys through life’s milestones, all within the comforting shadow of her beloved playhouse. The book was written by Stephen’s daughter, Alyssa Davis, for whom the first Lilliput Play Home was made 30 years ago. “My playhouse has been part of many memories for me growing up, and even as an adult. Whenever I see it, I’m reminded of my parent’s love and the whimsy of childhood” says Davis. “I wrote this as a way to thank my parents, and also included a surprise twist to let them know that they were going to be grandparents! The playhouse’s magic will be extending into the next generation!”
