About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is having a day where nothing feels quite right or when they are struggling to express their unique vision of themselves. It is the perfect choice for the preschooler or kindergartner who wants to be in charge of their own look and feels frustrated when things do not go exactly as planned. The story follows a dinosaur cookie who is determined to be the King of All Cookies but keeps getting decorated in ways he finds ridiculous, from pink tutus to sparkly stars. While the book is packed with humor and bright colors, it tackles the very real emotional themes of self-identity and managing frustration. It provides a safe, silly space to talk about how it feels to want control and how to handle it when others do not see us the way we see ourselves. It is a fantastic tool for opening a dialogue about personal style and the fun that can be found in unexpected transformations.
