I am a kindergarten teacher and LOVE this book. My students enjoy the repetition of the phrases, "Who me, couldn't be!" and "Mmm... Oh!... Now I know..." as on each page skunk thinks he has solved the mystery of the missing cookies. Clever clues on each page help students predict which friend of skunk will appear on the next page. The happy ending, with all the friends sharing the cookies, brings the story to a warm conclusion. The illustrations are colorful and large, with limited text on each page, perfect for younger children.I use this book early in the school year to help the students learn each others names. I hide a small baggie of cookies in a child's lap. Students then have to guess who has the cookies by saying, "Mary took the cookies from the cookie jar." Mary responds, "Who me, couldn't be!" and guesses another child. When the cookies are discovered, we rehide them. Finally, we get to enjoy our cookie snack. I also adapt the activity for use throughout the year, with each child being an alphabet letter, an alphabet sound, a number or a site word. For example, "14 took the cookie from the cookie jar." "Who me, couldn't be!" "17 took the cookie from the cookie jar." and so on.My students truly enjoy experiencing this story all year long. I highly recommend it for your students or your child.

This book was an instant hit in our house. My daughter enjoys having it read to her as well as participating in the rhymes herself. We also like going through each page to solve the mystery behind who's on the next page. Beautifully illustrated and lots of fun for both parent and child.

Almost every child has played this classic refrain and now yourchild can enjoy this new adaptation and the wonderfully colorful illustrations by Wolff! Skunk has a mystery to solve ... someone has taken the cookies from the cookie jar, but who could it be? We follow skunk on the trail as he asks all his animal friends.... Wolff's detailed, colorful and whimsical watercolor illustrations are a delight to behold. My first grade daughter picked up this book as soon as I got it and spent the rest of the afternoon reading and re-reading the story and looking with joy at the illustrations. This is a book which should be on everyone's bookshelf and one that all children will enjoy. END

This is one of my favorites. I have great memories as a child, singing this song. I wanted to introduce it to my son so we checked it out at the library. After renewing it 3 times we had to buy it. My son was 2 and had just started talking and he would try to sing along with the book. I even found him one day "reading" the book in his room and trying to sing along. He loved it and still does at almost 4. It is always a bed time favorite for our family.

Who Took the Cookies from the Cookie Jar by Bonnie Lass and Philemon Sturges and illustrated by Ashley Wolff is a delightful animal version of the classic chant.My students love this book and enjoy guessing who it was that took the cookies. I recommend it for kids 3-7

My autistic 3 year old son loved this book. They were reading it in his preschool class, so we purchase it ahead of time to get him used to the book (this helps him be more engaged in the classroom when they read it).This is one of those great books that has a good rhythm when reading, it makes it easy to pause at the animal's name and wait for the child to say it! He learned all the animals in no time!

I bought "Who Took the Cookies from the Cookie Jar" for my two-and-a-half-year-old niece. I was visiting during bath time the other day, when my sister said: "Come here little mouse. Let me wipe your face." My nieces response was: "Please don't tease. I eat cheese."I had no idea what my neice was talking about until my sister explained that that is what the mouse says from the book. Infact, my niece has the entire book memorized. She loves it!When we read "Who Took the Cookies from the Cookie Jar" later that same night, my niece proudly explained how if you look at the page you can tell who's coming next, how Mommy taught her that. She reads this book over and over. And each time she reads it, it's like discovering this secret of who is coming next for the first time, fresh and exciting.I would recommend this book to anyone with a todler or young child. It's full of a love for animlals, as well as the sense of wonder and curiosity that makes this book and young children so magical.

Fresh new life infuses this familiar children's playground song/chant/rhyme. As Skunk puzzles out the mystery of the missing cookies with help from his animal friends, children are introduced to the landscape of the southwestern desert, as well as many of its animal inhabitants.This presents a fun opportunity for gentle lessons in science.And for teachers/parents looking for patterned books to nudge reading skills along, this fits the bill with its rhyme and repetition. The large, colorful pictures portray animals that are endearing but not cutesy. Bright and bouncy, this is just the kind of book that works well with lap sharing for very young children but just as easily lends itself to sharing with a group. Kids will be developing their sleuthing skills as they use clues in the pictures to predict which animal did steal the cookies. They'll be having so much FUN that you'll have to steal the book back from them to do anything else!
