Best Friendship book
This sequel to the original Stick and Stone has Stick searching for his family tree, only to find that friends sometimes make the best family. Such a sweet sequel. My kids love both books equally.

Good Reading
Everyone should know where they come from. I mentioned wanting more plot development in my review of the first book in this series, so I was thrilled to see how much more was happening in this sequel. The characters dealt with multiple conflicts and plot lines at once. They were simple enough for the smallest readers to understand, but it was delightful to have those extra layers of meaning for older readers to think about as well. With that being said, I wish the adoption subplot had been given more space to grow. Stick had such a strong yearning to know where he came from and what sort of tree he was. There was a lot of space here to explore his origins and how he felt about them. If only he’d had the opportunity to do so! I hope that the author will consider revisiting these themes in the future as I was disappointed by how all of this was resolved. As always, the friendship between Stick and Stone was wonderful. They both genuinely loved each other and would have done anything to help one another. That’s the sort of friendship everyone should have whether they’re a preschooler or a senior citizen! Ms. Ferry’s best moments were the ones that showed all of the little ways in which friends can make each other’s lives richer and happier. This is the second instalment of a series. I strongly recommend reading Stick and Stone first in order to fully understand the characters’ backstories. Stick and Stone: Best Friends Forever was a heartwarming adventure. originally posted at long and short reviews
