    Tom Watson

    Tom Watson lives in Chicago with his wife, daughter, and son. He also has a dog, as you could probably guess. The dog is a Labrador-Newfoundland mix. Tom says he looks like a Labrador with a bad perm. He wanted to name the dog "Put Your Shirt On" (please don't ask why), but he was outvoted by his family. The dog's name is Shadow. Early in his career Tom worked in politics, including a stint as the chief speechwriter for the governor of Ohio. This experience helped him develop the unique, storytelling narrative style of the Stick Dog books. More important, Tom's time in politics made him realize a very important thing: Kids are way smarter than adults. And it's a lot more fun and rewarding to write stories for them than to write speeches for grown-ups.

      "Stick Dog and his four friends - Stripes, Mutt, Poo-Poo and Karen - will do anything to steal some sweet-smelling hamburgers from a family at Picasso Park!"-- Provided by publisher.
    • 4/5
      This book is flat out hilarious and will be tempting even for a reluctant reader. It would also be tons of fun to read aloud. But what I really like about this is the message of being kind to your friends, working together, and respecting everything (except squirrels--you'll understand when you read it). I also an impressed at the emphasis (subtle, but clear) on vocabulary. Kids will learn something while they are laughing. Is there any way better to do it?
    • 3/5
      Stick Dog goes in search of the perfect hamburger. Good, silly fun.
    • 4/5
      Super cute, age and reading level perfect for Jackson. He's excited that there are more!
