The ultimate guide to the art and science of stick collecting. Because nobody knows sticks like the founders of Stick Nation.
What makes a particularly good stick? Is it the stick’s length and sturdiness—a trusty walking staff, perhaps, that conjures up fantasies of wizards and battle? Or is it the stick’s usefulness—say, as a drumstick on a log in the woods, or as a slingshot for propelling pebbles at your friend's face? Maybe what makes a stick great is its unique shape, like Poseidon’s trident or a Stormtrooper’s blaster gun?
Or maybe what makes a stick great is simply how it makes you feel.
In Sticks, enjoy an incredible collection of Stick Nation’s most magnificent sticks—some from as far as Cameroon!—and meet the people (and dogs!) who love them. Stick Nation founders Logan Jugler and Boone Hogg also share their top tips for finding and classifying sticks, encouraging readers to let loose, have fun, and embrace their imaginations.
Filled with unforgettable sticks found throughout the world, Sticks inspires readers to head into the great outdoors to find a stick of their own.
“I believe that an imagination and a love of sticks are two things with which all humans beings are born. Give any one of us a cool stick and we instantly feel its unknown known—its power, its purpose, its placement in that particular moment in our lives. Give us any more than a moment with a cool stick and we build worlds, battle foes, cast spells, walk wisely, encounter creatures heretofore unknown, and wonder. What tree, where from, why now, why me? Sticks shows you that the appreciation of sticks is innately human and how you are but one small part of the huge world of Stick Nation.”—Dermot Mulroney, actor, musician, and stick enthusiast
“Sticks have pretty much become the only thing keeping my lights on, so I am obviously an advocate for a book full of them! Go immerse yourself in this book and come out with a newfound appreciation for sticks in all their various shapes and sizes.”—Noah Kahan, singer-songwriter of “Stick Season”
“It’s fun to look for something as simple as sticks! Most people wouldn’t think twice about them, but you could be surprised.”—Dax Flame, actor, YouTube star, and member of Stick Nation
