Quick Summary

If your kid's just starting to read chapter books but still loves pictures, Stick and Stone: Explore and More is a fantastic pick. This one actually gives you two stories in one Stick and Stone go on a scavenger hunt full of surprises, and then they head to the beach for some sandy fun and the graphic novel format makes it easy for new readers to follow along without getting lost. It's perfect for kids in kindergarten through third grade, especially those who might be a little hesitant about longer books since the pictures carry a lot of the story. Parents will appreciate that it reinforces themes of friendship and teamwork without being preachy, and kids will just think it's funny when Stick and Stone get into silly situations. If your little reader enjoys this, they'd probably also like the original Stick and Stone books by Beth Ferry or other early reader graphic novels like the Narwhal and Jelly series.
