Review
As the summer heat rises, Stick dog and his pals are back in the fourth book of the series Stick Dog. Stick Dog and his friends want ice cream on this hot day, but as they take off chasing the ice cream truck stick dog is spotted by a human and shortly there after the police are on his trial. Can stick dog evade capture and lead his friends to the cool treats they desire?
With humor and quick moving plot fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Big Nate books will eat this book up, and probably eat bowls of ice cream while reading it. Stick Dog's character is well developed at this point and the book stands alone as a single read that will likely inspire readers to seek out others in this engagingly funny series. Super addition to the library for readers that are just beginning chapter books and others who need to improve their confidence before moving on to longer titles.
Overall Book Score: very good
