Stick Man yearns for his family tree, but a dog's fetch flings him into a whirlwind of woes: swan nests, kid's swords, and yule-log fates. From beach bats to bonfire perils, his pleas echo "I'm Stick Man, that's me!" until Santa's sleigh swoops for a Christmas homecoming. Scheffler's witty watercolors whirl with Donaldson's bouncy verse, a holiday hit on belonging's branchy bliss for all ages.
