Great book!

My 3 year old grandson loved this book! Elmo an Cookie Monster are his favorites so this was perfect. Everyone is tired of reading it because he always asks for it!

My 2 year old loves this book

I tell the story by saying things like: Hug!, catch, nomnomnomnom, and oh no... there are no more cookies! My son loves it.

Sweet and gentle story

I teach toddlers and thought this would be a good book to help lay the foundation for sharing and for being a good friend. Most of them are familiar with Sesame Street which helped.

Cookie Monster wants to thank Elmo for sharing his precious toys on a play date, and comes up with the idea of making cookies for him. A hand made gift is a lovely idea and the illustrations showing the baking process were adorable. Alas, poor Cookie Monster finds his willpower is not as strong as his passion for cookies; he just can't resist eating them before he can pass them to Elmo. With help from Bert and Ernie, Cookie finds a way to bake, and give, cookies to Elmo.

Cookies for Elmo is a message book but it's done gently and with humor. Young children will enjoy the pictures and the humor and it's a good conversation starter for talking about sharing, friendship, cooperation, and delayed gratification. My class of one and two year olds sat fairly still while we read it and liked looking at the pictures.

I received a free copy through the Sourcebooks Early Reads program in exchange for an honest review.

Elmo, Cookies, and the Power of Sharing

I received this book as a review copy for Source Books. This was a wonderful story about caring and sharing. Elmo, the cookie lover, learns that the most important part of enjoying a cookie is having someone to share it with. The bonus was the cookie recipe in the back.
