The hilarious team behind Knot Cannot is back, this time with the story of curmudgeonly Wood and a girl determined to be his friend. The hilarious team behind Knot Cannot is back, this time with the story of curmudgeonly Wood and a girl determined to be his friend. An imaginative girl in the forest knows that the piece of wood she finds could be a unicorn or a ship or a ladder. But Wood would rather be sleeping like a log. Despite all the girl's attempts to get him to play with her and her beloved stuffed bunny, Prince Fluffybutt, Wood refuses to branch out. But when the girl really gets in trouble, Wood has to look deep within himself to see if it's possible to turn over a new leaf.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Wood Could by Tiffany Stone is praised for its dynamic, comic book-like presentation and engaging wordplay. It balances humour with a meaningful story about overcoming selfishness, offering both amusing details and a thoughtful conclusion as the wooden protagonist discovers joy in helping others. The collaboration between Stone and the illustrator enhances the themes, making it both playful and conceptually rich for young readers.
