Max Found Two Sticks

We learned about making beats (and listening for beats) and about what you can do with two sticks (although Aramis and Donovan are naturally skilled in finding value in any object they encounter, inside or outside-legos, bottles, key rings, stones, sticks, you name it. In the fall when we collect leaves, Donovan has always thought the dry leaves are the most beautiful. On a walk, Aramis always finds at least two sticks that are slingshot or bow-and-arrow worthy. We didn't talk about those connections when we read it. But the book was another way to reinforce what you can do with simple things you find.
