We're still getting curbside pickup from our local library, and we feel so lucky. Our librarians chose awesome books for us to check out.
Stick and Stone was written by Beth Ferry and illustrated by Tom Lichtenheld. Just looking at the cover we knew it was going to be a good book. Stick and Stone is so cute! What a team.
Stick and Stone are both alone and then they become friends. When pine cone is being prickly and mean to Stone,
Stick stands up for him and helps make the situation better.
Don’t we all like
to have friends who have our back?
When a storm hits, things get rough for Stick and Stone, and they're separated. Readers won’t be disappointed when
they find out how the two are reunited. Adorable!
It’s a book that can be
read quickly and enjoyed by people of all ages. You'll turn the last page and feel your heart swell with happiness.
Stick and Stone is a book that tells its story with a simplicity that tugs at your heart. The illustrations are super fun and appealing.The book's message is about friendship. It’s nice
to have buddies that stick up for you.
Margo
and I loved seeing the character’s facial expressions, and we enjoyed their
adventures. During the storm Margo was
saying, “Oh, no! Oh, no! Be careful!” Even though the storm
causes problems, things end well, because in a tight spot, friends help us out. This book
was a winner for us. Now Margo
has been playing with sticks and stones in the yard, making up her own
stories. We look forward to reading more
books by this author and illustrator.
Happy Reading!

The title is a funny twist on the old saying about sticks and stones.
