When I look through “Clear the list” classroom wishlist posts from teachers, I feel like one of the most common items I see is books. What teacher or parent couldn’t use a good set of books for their kids? That’s why I’m very excited to bring you this giveaway for a Complete Cookie Chronicles Book set!
I hadn’t heard of the Cookie Chronicles before this giveaway, but if it’s getting rave reviews from Lemony Snicket, it must be good! I really like the premise of Cookie War, the newest book coming out in August, which aims to tackle politics in an accessible way for children. I’ve been interested in politics since I was a kid; I have fond memories of making a ballot box for my Barbies out of a cereal box one year, and having all my dolls cast their vote on election night while the results came in on TV. When I was 13, I convinced my mom of the importance of registering to vote. So I would have really liked this book when I was a kid, especially since it’s meant for ages 8-12 which is around when my interest started. Although, given the message of the book – that politics should be about saying nice things about yourself instead of bad things about others, sharing your ideas for a better world and letting people decide if they like them, and that people should be able to have differing viewpoints but still respect each other and get along – I’m thinking they should expand the age range on this one so that it’s recommended reading for adults too!

That is right……1 Lucky Winner Will Win The Complete ‘Cookie Chronicles’ Series (Books 1 – 6)! Book 6 Releases August 6th!
From the husband-and-wife, author-and-illustrator duo that brought you Ben Yokoyama and the Cookie of Doom comes a tale about keeping your friends closeâeven when they start to look like enemies
BEN YOKOYAMA AND THE COOKIE WAR
Cookie Chronicles #6
By Matthew Swanson and illustrated by Robbi Behr
It’s the start of a new school year at Honeycutt Elementary and that means one thing: student council elections! Best friends, Ben and Janet are determined not to let mean girl Amy Lou Bonnerman win for the fourth year in a row, but when they both decide to run against her, they become rivals!
At first, it’s all funny posters, free candy, and pie-in-the-sky ideas for how to make the school a better place. But before long, the campaign turns sourâwith mean rumors, dirty tricks, hurt feelings, and even sabotage! Ben and Janetâs legendary friendship is put to the test. To make things right, they must expose a conspiracy, swallow hard truths, and remember whatâs most importantâtheir friendship.
The Cookie Chronicles series has been hailed by Lemony Snicket (New York Times bestselling author of A Series of Unfortunate Events) as “marvelous… If I could, I would eat it.” In each installment, literal-minded Ben Yokoyama gets a new fortune cookie fortune, which he takes far too seriouslyâprompting humorous misunderstandings, ill-fated adventures, and a deeper understanding of language and life. The series is funny, heartfelt, and loaded with illustrations that will delight confident readers while drawing in reluctant ones, and stars a half-Japanese young boy whose mixed race family is drawn from the illustrator Robbi Behr’s own experience growing up Asian American.
COOKIE WAR is a great way to engage kids with politics in an accessible way. Timely for the US presidential election this fall, the book promotes the idea that politics should be about:
1) sharing your ideas for a better world and letting people decide if they like them
2) saying nice things about yourself instead of bad things about others
3) the idea that people should be able to have differing viewpoints but still respect each other (and get along)
