About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler is struggling with the big feelings that come with snack time, especially when a sibling or friend wants a piece of what they have. This short, sturdy board book follows Elmo as he navigates the excitement of having a plate of cookies while dealing with the high-energy (and very hungry) presence of Cookie Monster. It is a perfect tool for modeling how to maintain a positive attitude during social interactions involving food. The story emphasizes simple concepts of sharing and patience through relatable characters. Parents will appreciate the gentle humor and the way it validates a child's joy in their own treats while subtly encouraging them to be inclusive. At just eight pages, it is ideally suited for the short attention spans of children ages one to three, providing a quick but meaningful lesson in kindness and friendship during everyday moments.
