Stanley's Stick - Hegley John

Stanley''s Stick is a teaming-up of hefty talents - glorious poet John Hegley and award-winning illustrator Neal Layton. Stanley''s stick is not just a stick. With a stick in hand, Stanley''s options are endless - he flies to the moon, writes in the sand, goes fishing, plays a whistle and rides a dinosaur - and his imagination takes over and the magic begins. Hegley''s lyrical prose captures the free-wheeling expressiveness of childhood, and Layton''s deceptively simple illustrations are full of wit and character. Sweet, magical and thoroughly entertaining, this is Hegley and Layton''s first collaboration.
