Cookies: Bite-Size Life Lessons by Amy Krouse Rosenthal

4.0

I need to get this one for my classroom library! When I first looked at it, I was skeptical- it's kind of just definitions/examples, rather than a story. However, as I kept going, I realized, what a perfect way to work on definitions and understanding character traits in context! What each word means in the same context, in the same situations, so kids can really get it! Many kids only know "optimism" and "pessimism" only in the context of a glass of milk. Respect is a word they hear, something to give grownups, but what does that look like? GREAT book!
