The Book
The Land of Stick
Our first book takes our main characters on a wild journey through the lands to find The Wishing Tree. Our friends encounter magnificent challenges along the way and unexpectedly get help from some really kind creatures. Stick, Big Feet, Stretch, Twiggles, and Wags learn that it’s great to stick out from everyone else and to be just who you are. That's cool, right?

School Programs
We’ve had the great pleasure of delivering readings for school assemblies. The kids have a really great time and learn some valuable lessons along the way. We ask, “How do you feel you’re different from everyone else?” The hands fly up in the air and the kids have amazing insights.

"This book is colorful, creative, and
fun, but above all it tells a simple adventurous story about the great
value of accepting yourself as
different from everyone else and
how that can prove inspiring and helpful."

"My boys ages 3, 5 & 8 all loved this
book. My 5 year old said the best part
was the entire thing. All my kids brought
it to school for share day and to read to
their classmates and it was a total hit.
Great message, great drawings.
Highly recommend!"

Elementary School Teacher
“As an elementary school teacher, I see
an increasing need for social emotional
development in children. The Land of Stick
really gets children thinking about their
special gifts and shows that they should be
celebrated. I can’t wait to share this with my students!
“Wackiest Project!”
We're proud to say that The Land of Stick was voted the WACKIEST PROJECT for the Jessie Beck Elementary School Halloween competition in 2024. The stick people are thrilled!
