Cookies: Bite-Size Life Lessons is a book about feelings and actions that can be related to cookies. This new sort of dictionary by Amy Krouse Rosenthal describes what words like fair, patient, polite, and courageous mean.This is a cute book to help describe these words to younger children, but it may be a bit difficult to read. The text is written in cursive font, so it would best be read aloud to a class. The pictures are a little blurry, but they still well depict the emotions and words defined on each page.
I would suggest this book to be read aloud followed by handing out cookies to students. Perhaps children would better relate to the book since each feeling and action was in terms of cookies. For example, “Content means sitting on the steps – just you, me, and a couple of cookies.” I did enjoy this book.
