In life, there is one thing we can all agree on: cookies.
And there is no greater expert on this endless source of joy, warmth, and crumbs than Cookie Monster. In The Joy of Cookies, Cookie Monster offers deep thoughts on life, friendship, baking, and the love of cookies. He serves as our guide to all things cookie and shares how best to fully experience the joy cookies bring us.
This is a book to get us through the dark times and celebrate the good times, and to help us more fully understand who we truly are as both cookie lovers and as people.
It's the perfect gift for friends, family, and fellow monsters—the gift of cookies.

      PreS-K-Fans of the big blue guy will love this title, which, just like a warm chocolate chip cookie, oozes joy and happiness. Throughout the fun and lively pages, Cookie Monster espouses his life philosophy of seizing the moment and loving the people in his life. For example one page says, "Love means never having to say me sorry...for eating last cookie. But still, me sorry." Text and illustrations work well together. For example, one pages says, "Fill life with people you love." The photo above shows a group shot of Grover, Big Bird, Cookie, and Elmo. On the opposite page is the text "Fill tummy with cookie you love." Above the text is a heart-shaped, yummy-looking cookie. This title is true to the essence of Cookie Monster, but does give an occasional nod to healthy eating without being heavy handed. The book also has some recipes including sugar and double chocolate cookies. The book signs off in true Sesame Street style with the acknowledgement, "Me would like to thank the letter C and number 2. Because two cookies always better than one." VERDICT A sweet story that will appeal to children and adults. A solid addition to any library collection that serves young children.-Robin Sofge, Prince William Public Library System, VA

      Cookie Monster provides advice on taking a bite out of life--he's already eaten the top corner of this lighthearted novelty book aimed at nostalgic adult Sesame Street fans. He offers everything from slogans ("Keep calm and eat cookies") to tips ("Smile always just a cookie away") to three recipes (including cookies for vegans). Chocoholics should appreciate the cookie references on almost every page.
