What to Do with a Stick [Paperback]

In this last installment of Jane Yolen's trio of books about ordinary objects with extraordinary uses, the humble stick is lauded as a sword to tame monsters of dread and an oar for a rowboat in puddle or pond, among other imaginative functions. As with most things, though, it fulfills its truest purpose when combined with others: what can be made with a stick, a box, and a string? Music that goes with & everything! Jane Yolen is an award-winning author, poet, and teacher. She has written more than 365 books, includingWhat to Do with a Box, illustrated by Chris Sheban, and the Caldecott Medal—winningOwl Moon, illustrated by John Schoenherr. The Educational Book & Media Association honored her significant contributions with its 2018 Jeremiah Ludington Award.

"The clever rhyming text makes this one a pleasure to read aloud. This book would be a wonderful tool in the hands of teachers." Pamela Kramer
