Stick Bug Rules - by Naseem Hrab (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

A rule-breaking stick bug convinces his friends to toss away the rules for hide-and-seek and discovers that some rules exist for a reason

When you're a stick bug, playing hide-and-seek is a serious business. So when it comes to hiding, stick bugs are real sticklers, with rules on top of rules. Except for Darryl. Darryl refuses to follow the rules--he's never even read them! And he's so spectacularly bad at hiding that everyone always knows exactly where he is.

Eventually, Darryl becomes so fed up with all the rules that he refuses to play hide-and-seek unless there are no rules at all. But when all the stick bugs start hiding the same way Darryl hides--which is to say, not really hiding at all--they get a reminder that sometimes rules are important. With some compromise and a set of amended, much shorter rules, the stick bugs find a way to safely play together.

Full of laughs, this picture book from the powerhouse duo behind How to Party Like a Snail and Otis & Peanut is also a fun exploration of rules, responsibility, individuality, and compromise.
