Official synopsis Publisher
A delightful twist on a lost pet story that takes an adorable pup around the world to track down what he thinks is his best friend’s prized possession–from the critically acclaimed creator of That’s Not My Name!, Bilal Cooks Daal, and I Am Perfectly Designed.
Milo loves to make his owner Louise happy because she’s his favorite person in the world. While they’re strolling through the park one day, Louise picks a twig up off the ground and says to Milo, “This is Stick”. She throws Stick across the grass and Milo excitedly brings it back to her. Milo doesn’t know why they do this over and over again, but he knows that he can put a smile on her face by running after Stick. So, when Louise throws Stick a little too far, Milo is determined to go the distance too.
Milo starts searching all over the neighborhood for Stick—while Louise simultaneously searches for Milo—but there’s one problem: all the sticks look the same! Which one is Louise’s stick? Milo sets out on a grand adventure for a little pup, and while his quest takes him all over the globe, he learns that home is where he really wants to be. Anoosha Syed stretches her storytelling talents with this hilarious and tender friendship story.
