what it is.
The show.
An animated special based on Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's picture book, following a stick man who gets separated from his family tree and goes on a journey through the seasons to find his way home. Suitable for ages 3–7.
our take
“Stick Man captures the warmth and rhythm of the original book with beautiful animation and a perfectly measured pace. The story models resilience and family devotion, the language is rich and rhyming, and the seasonal journey provides natural learning opportunities. A lovely choice for a single-sitting family viewing experience.”
