PS
Engaging full-bleed illustrations shore up a spare, low-tension text to show what a boy and his dog do with a stick: "throw it," "balance with it," "swish it," "stir with it," and so on. The boy drops the stick from a bridge, and it floats downstream to a little girl. She uses the "very useful stick" in a tent she's building, and the two (plus pup) play together.
