Overview / 简介: |
| Once upon a time, while Fox was visiting the land of Holiday Treats, a little cookie―still warm from the bakery oven―burst out the front door looking sweet and ready to be devoured. But, as it turns out, Cookie is not as fast as he thinks and when Fox finally catches him, they’re both in for a big surprise: Sugar Cookie does not taste delicious―and he’s certainly not fit to be eaten. What’s an unsavory cookie to do? Is there another option for this not-so-sweet treat? |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| "Hemingway bakes up a clever case of mistaken identity in this holiday treat–inspired tale. . . The author’s snappy pacing and silly scenarios keep the giggles coming."- |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Tough Cookie starts out similarly to The Gingerbread Man with a Fox deciding that he looks delicious enough to chase down and eat, but that’s pretty much where the similarities end. In this story, Cookie (in spite of his sugary good looks) does NOT taste good when the Fox takes a little nip of him. Cookie is disappointed by this and breaks down in tears. The Fox feels sympathetic and they get to be buddies, with the Fox trying to help Cookie feel better about himself. He takes him to a spa, enters him into a race, and helps him build a new gingerbread home. When Cookie fails at success, the adorable characters of the town lift him up and reveal his true purpose. This story shines above so many others in that it is truly original even though it borrows initially from The Gingerbread Man. The story is sweet, the telling is creative, but the highlight is the absolutely precious illustrations. I don’t know when I’ve seen more sweet characters! You just fall in love with all of them, and especially Cookie. I highly recommend this book to all ages, and now I want to find more books by this wonderful author/illustrator. He is the grandson of Ernest Hemingway, but his talent is all his own. |
