A Gold Star for Zog
Praise forStick Man*"Donaldson and Scheffler's poignant, suspenseful profile of an inanimate object recalls Laurie Keller orThe Velveteen Rabbit. Donaldson's rhymes never skip a beat, and Scheffler personalizes the many animals, people and settings in his witty watercolors. This yarn could become a December perennial." —Publishers Weekly, starred review*"Scheffler's engaging illustrations, Donaldson's irresistible rhyming text and repeated refrains make this a winning read-aloud that will stick around long after the holiday season." —Kirkus, starred review"The easy cadence, with a rolling structure and uncomplicated rhymes, will make this endearing picture book a fun read-along, and though Stick Man might object, kids will recognize the near-endless possibilities for fun that a stick presents." —Booklist
