Customer Reviews

Simple and silly

I read this book growing up and wish there were more books about Cookie! I bought it to read to my son and he laughs hard and loves to yell "everywhere!"

Still like...

When I was a young child my mom always read this book to me before bed time. I've always liked it because Cookie always got in a big mess of trouble for a week. It feels like I grew up on this book and life is similiar. Still this is my favorite book to share with others. It sticks in the childs head from the moderate tone the author uses and the humor that Cookie goes thru for the entire week of insanity.

good for teaching the days of the week

This picture book is written in a simple pattern. Each day of the week, the cat makes a mess in a different place. Picture books written in a day-of-the-week pattern are few and far between. For this purpose, I also recommend "All Through the Week with Cat and Dog," ISBN 0613340485.

Preschooler Tested!

In the great cookie of life, this book is the chocolate chips! I love this book so much. I've been a preschool teacher for years and this story is always a hit with the children. The opening line, "On Monday Cookie fell in the toilet" appeals to a child's funny bone...and they adore the antics of this fun and frisky feline! It's the cat's meow!

Execellent!

Cookie's Week is a great Pre-school or Kindergarten book! Your little ones will be on the edge of their seats wondering what Cookie will do next. Not only will they learn the days of the week and a pattern, but after a couple of readings, they'll be reading it to you! Cookie is just the kind of cat every Kindergarter should have!

Wonderful !!

My three year old loved every page. This is one they will be mimick reading quickly for its shortness, but that helps them with their interest in real reading.
