One of Tomie's most popular young picture books, this charming story about Cookie the cat makes a perfect board book. With its bright watercolor illustrations and one sentence of text per page, toddlers will love following Cookie through the days of the week--and seeing all the trouble he causes around the house! -- GoodReads

This story is short, seeet and a bit silly. I think it would be a great book to help teach ‘littles’ the days of the week.

This book follows a cat throughout the week who is always causing trouble. The cat, named cookie, spills garbage, falls into the toilet, and gets stuck in the kitchen drawer. Every day of the week means a new bad thing that the cat does.

The book reminds me of David Goes to School. The cat is always doing something bad like David. I think this book is great for kids because kids can understand what the cat is doing that is bad and why that activity is bad. Then they can explain what the cat should being doing instead. It teaches kids more about right from wrong. This book does not have a lot of words and it is more about the pictures. I would think it would be for kindergarteners. ( )
