I was supposed to shelve this new book at one of my libraries today, but there was no way it was going anywhere except home with me! I have been a huge Cookie Monster fan since I was a kid. He was the best part of Sesame Street hands down. I've been carting around my Cookie Monster stuffed animal

and cookie jar for decades now.

As a grown-up, I do a passable imitation that greatly pleased my daughter and niece when they were younger. (I made certain to buy my girl lots of Cookie Monster books,) And I found myself today reading several pages out loud to myself using that voice.

This is a total nostalgia fest. And I think it is totally aimed at grown-ups, because there is none of that "Cookie is a sometime food" crap that I heard they had started doing on Sesame Street in recent years. This is Cookie Monster in all his glory chowing down on cookies by the ton.

I have rarely been so happy reading a book.

find a friend, get a big batch of cookies, and enjoy life together. The book does have a few recipes with rather interesting directions, and the illustrations are darling, just like Cookie Monster.

A very fast and cute read in which Cookie Monster shares his wisdom. It usually involves cookies: memes, recipes, or general cookie thoughts. If you have any fond memories of Sesame Street, this one is worth the 10-15 minutes. If only for the giggles.
