Stick Man By Julia Donaldson

We’re big fans of The Gruffalo, The Smartest Giant In Town and other stories by award winning Julia Donaldson. Our children really enjoyeded listening to us read the stories and now they enjoy reading them themselves. Not only are the stories excellently written, the drawings by Axel Scheffler are superb. The latest title by this hit duo of author and illustrator is Stick Man…

Stick Man lives in the family tree with his Stick Lady Love and their stick children three. But it’s dangerous being a Stick Man. A dog wants to play with him, a swan builds her nest with him. He even ends up on a fire! Join Stick Man on his troublesome journey back to the family tree.

The book is a must-have for all Gruffalo and Smartest Giant fans and would make an ideal Christmas present. Order your copy from amazon today!
