Read this to my daughter this morning and it was definitely a fun one. I tried to put in voices where I could as the book is pretty much all dialogue in a comic book speech bubble style with characters in a Wild West-style town lamenting the fact they ā€œhave a problemā€ known as The Great Cookie Thief and they try to work out if this one guy is actually the same guy on the poster!
My daughter was easily distracted at first but as the characters got more panicked it became more exciting and as soon as I put on a Cookie Monster voice, she loved it! I can see us revisiting this one. Thereā€™s so much to explore and talk about in the artwork too.
