The Smart Cookie by Jory John

4.0

Another fun installment in the Bad Seed series that follows a cookie who doesn't feel so smart in the beginning of the story and lacks confidence. She wasn't the cookie who got the best grades, or could say the answers the quickest, but with the help of a wonderful teacher, smart cookie finds out her interests and what she's really good at. Hint: it's not just one thing but it turns out to be many! Once again, John nailed this new edition with a message of hope, perseverance, and teaching kids everywhere that there a variety of things we can all be good at and that it's okay if we aren't good at everything. As always, I love John's play on words and he remains one of my favorite authors to date.
