Rating: - One very disappointed family of Donaldson fans!
I was really excited to see another Donaldson/Scheffler book available, not only because I thought my 2 girls aged 3 & 4 yrs would be delighted but also because we have all immensely enjoyed reading every other one of their collaborations time after time, without tiring.....until now.
From the story-teller's point of view, I found the rhyming text didn't flow as smoothly as her other books, whilst the 'stick man, stick man' line drove me crazy.
I also found the subject matter slightly ... Read More

Rating: - Their best book yet!!
I ordered this book for my daughters aged 2.5 and 4.5.
As I started reading the younger one joined in - as she must have heard it at nursery.
It's one of the only books she sits through to the end and shouts "Again, again!" at the end.
My elder daughter is the bookworm and loves it too.

However I think I'm the biggest fan! I never tire of reading it. This wonderful duo have produced some of the most engaging and vibrant children's books and have struck gold with Stick Man. ... Read More

I felt compelled to review this book because my 4 year old boy loves it so much.

Stick Man is a fantastic book which my 2 girls who are 7 and 4 and I love. It flows really well (something I didn't find with Tiddler) and the story is just great. This probably now equals Snail and the Whale as one of my favourite kids books ever.

Rating: - The 1st Julia Donaldson, Axel Scheffler book I dont like!
I have been reading Julia Donaldson,Axel Scheffler books to my son for the past 3 years and have almost every title they have done.
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading them and he has loved listening to them - over and over and over again.
However, for me this is the first book that I find annoying to read. The 'Stick Man, Stick Man' rhyme is seriously annoying. My son still enjoys it but I don't, so I will give only two stars for the usual level of interesting background details and superb illustrations ... Read More
