Stick Dog Rocks - From A Grateful Mother
My son has struggled with learning to read and therefore is a very reluctant reader. Stick Dog was the first book he read all on his own, of his own accord and motivation. He was so proud to be able to do it, and I loved hearing him giggle as he read about the silly plans the dogs concocted. Tom Watson has a perfect formula for the 7-10 year-old child - the writing is accessible, yet still smart, and the humor is silly, but not over-the-top, and it's not loaded with inappropriate language (thank you!). When the second book in the series came out, my son was so excited he carried it everywhere and literally slept with the book. I've since recommended it to other mothers for their reluctant readers, and the response has been the same - it's the first book that many of them have taken the initiative to read on their own (girls and boys), and they also love it. I've also recommended it to several bookstores and schools as a great read for kids in this age group.
Please, please, please, write more Stick Dog books - and soon!

A Sure Favorite
What's not to like about Stick Dog. This book is in full color and has a bonus chapter. I wish all of the Stick Dog and Stick Cat books were in full color. As with all of the books, the pages are lined giving the appearance of notebook paper. The lines really help a kiddo with dyslexia follow along better.

Good, Silly, Doggy, Reading Fun!
Format: Hardcover
I've read all three of the Stick Dog books to my class and they've loved every one! Someone always has them at their desk now. This is a fun, easy to read story that's 140+ pages of some stray dogs plotting to get some hamburgers. The font is huge and the story is littered with illustrations so each page has at most four paragraphs, so not very daunting if you have a reluctant reader. The author's tone makes it easily accessible too. He talks to kids at their level, never down to them, and even manages to sneak in some higher level vocabulary in there at times! This book and its sequels could be the ones to turn any reluctant readers in your life into book hounds!

A Book About Friendship, Gumption and Happiness
Format: Hardcover
This book is an enthusiastic and inspired combination of stick drawings, challenging vocabulary, cheerful wordplay and shaggy dog, (literally), adventures. There is a tremendous sense of happy camaraderie among the doggy characters.
The drawing is intentionally amateurish; the dogs are stick figures. Except there's more going on here than you might imagine, and the author manages to fit a considerable amount of expression and personality into the drawings. You get a sort of "less is more" vibe, and the young reader is drawn into paying more attention to the writing. That said, the simple drawings clearly illustrate what's being related in the text and so end up being amusing and helpful. Let's hear it for stick drawings. Think Picasso, but with more tails.
The vocabulary is at a high but fair level - one dog doesn't speak to another, he "addresses" him. That's not outlandish, but it represents a real step up in the level of sophistication of the writing. The overall effect is that this is a book that encourages a young reader, ever so gently, to step up his or her game in terms of reading confidence and ability. Pretty nice for a stick figure dog story.
There is word play and a great deal of clever conversation. But, there's also just a lot of silly, engaging dog stuff. The dogs tease each other, compliment each other, and play with each other. They have adventures, meet other animals, and explore things. There are set pieces, but a lot of the action just involves Stick Dog's bemused management of this gang of knuckleheads.
The upshot is that the book is funny, calm and welcoming. It is sneaky in that it has charms that are not immediately evident, but that become clear as you read it. It's sort of like a stray dog that works its way into your home, (like Stick Dog himself). How cool is that.

We love this book!
Format: Hardcover
My son and I originally found this book together for free on Nook and Kindle. We read it together, and it is hilarious! I loved it as much as he did. He loved it so much, he wanted an actual print copy he could take to school. We are also planning to buy another one to donate to his school library, and he has convinced several of his friends to buy it at their school book fair. If you have a kid in k-5, get this book. It is a cute story, but smart, too. Very funny! Tom Watson doesn't talk down to his readers, but writes in a way that lets them be in on the joke, too.
