Stick Man

Stick Man is a timeless favourite that kids absolutely love. This cased edition makes it even better — perfect for keeping the book safe and making it easy to carry around or gift. The story is charming and engaging, with great illustrations that capture children’s imaginations. If you’re a fan of classic children’s books, this one is definitely worth having.

This is another brilliant story from Julia Donaldson and has quickly become a firm favourite with our daughter. She loves it so much she can now read along with us and even joins in with the words. It’s especially lovely to see her follow along while listening to the Tonie version.The story is engaging, the rhymes are catchy (as always!), and the illustrations are beautiful. The book itself is a good size, and the text is clear and easy to read, even when the lights are a bit dim at bedtime.All in all, a lovely story that’s great for reading together and one that keeps getting picked off the shelf night after night.

Grandchildren love the animation, so now a nice addition to have the book for them to read and be read to.Such a nice little story with a happy ending for Stickman.

My nephew loves the gruffalo so got this book and the zog for him. These are great for kids

…if you are a stick (man) but safely home for Christmas, as it turns out.Sensitive readers may not appreciate the rather troubled time that ‘Stick Man’ is having, but all is well at the end when he is safely back ‘in the family tree’, with his Stick Lady Love and their stick children three!Very young children might appreciate a simplified introduction to Stick Man with the newly released (at the time of writing) chunky board book, entitled Let’s Find STICK MAN innovative with its more durable felt-like material for the 5 lift-the-flaps (Christmas not covered).ooOooBack to the paperback version, currently in hand, a sticker on the front reminds that the title is by the creators of The Gruffalo~ TITLE: STICK MAN~ AUTHOR: JULIA DONALDSON~ ILLUSTRATOR: AXEL SCHEFFLER~ PUBLISHER: ALISON GREEN BOOKS/SCHOLASTIC~ 2008‘Printed in Italy’From the back cover:🌳 'Stick Man lives in the family treeWith his Stick Lady Love and their stick children three.'ooOooMeasuring around 22 cm x 27.75 cm, the colourful front cover, with ‘Stick Man’ off on a jog with various creatures looking on, is enhanced by shiny silver colouring that glistens nonchalantly in the change of light. Inside are 32 colourful, shiny finish pages with the story running for 30, over double page spreads.The rhyming text, ENHANCED in places FOR EFFECT, is clear for the best part and easy to narrate.
