The Cookie Fiasco

Four friends. Three cookies. One problem.

Hippo, Croc, and the Squirrels are determined to have equal cookies for all! But how? There are only three cookies . . . and four of them! They need to act fast before a nervous Hippo breaks all the cookies into crumbs!

For a fun-filled afternoon, grab cookies, milk, and The Cookie Fiasco! Young readers will giggle their way through the book as they learn a little about math and friendship. When Hippo and his friends argue over who will get to eat the cookies, they debate ways to fairly divide them. Hippo is so nervous that he keeps breaking the cookies and soon, his friends know they need to “solve this problem fast! Our friendship depends on it!” 

The brightly colored animal friends pop off the page and the hilarious dialogue between the friends is wonderfully silly, as are the animal’s facial expressions. Each animal’s quote boxes are drawn in different colors that match the animal; this makes it easy to distinguish which animal is talking. Some pages tell the story with only pictures while other pages have up to four short, simple sentences. Adults should get their animal voices ready because The Cookie Fiasco! is the perfect book to read aloud. 

If you’re looking for a fun book that teaches the importance of sharing, then The Cookie Fiasco! is the book for you! The lovable characters, silly banter, and relatable conflict will make The Cookie Fiasco! a book that young readers will want to read again and again. However, this book is best served with cookies and milk! Too Many Carrots by Katy Hudson is another humorous book that highlights the importance of sharing that young readers will love.
