Beautiful book

I love this book. I can't wait for my kids to see it. We are big fans of any pop-up by Robert Sabuda. I feel I've stumbled on treasure with this one!

Great for all ages

I have a 9, 5 and 3.5 year old. All three enjoy the book but for different reasons. My 9 year old tries to figure out how the different pop-ups work. My five year old likes the mice and wants to know about the different types of cookies. My 3 1/2 year old just loves the book for everything it is. She can count, she loves the pop-ups and she is thrilled with the colorful pages. She likes to "read" the story with the numbers even thought she doen't always remember the names of the cookies. I had gotten this book when my son was a baby (8 years ago) and only found it again when we were cleaning his bookcase. It is not a book for a "typical" 2-year old because the pages will rip but for the child who has learned not to rip pages, it is a delight. I would definitely reccommend it. This is a book that engages the reader.

Amazing pop-up

We got this book as a Christmas gift last year. This pop-up book is like no other that I have seen. The children learn to count as they watch the paper come alive. The rhymes are easy to learn and my 3 year old daughter loves to say them as she turns the pages. Note: She is a very careful child, many children would tear the book as it is kind of delicate. She also counts the cookies and the hiding mice on each page. The colors are explosive and even I like reading this book over and over. I cannot even imagine how he gets paper to do the things that they do... cookies rotate, pinwheels rise out of the page and twirl, and a life sized gingerbread house magically climbs out of the book. I would highly recommend this book as long as they will not handle the book roughly. Better yet, read it with them and teach them to be gentle.

A tasty book indeed!

This is a great pop-up book for children and adults alike. Each page is full of texture and color leading up to a climactic gingerbread explosion!

The Best Pop Up Book Ever Made!

Cookie Count IS the best pop up book ever made! It's like an amusement park made of cookie rides. Swirling, pop up, moving cookies rise from each page. A masterpiece! Now all he has to do is make one that we can eat too!

A Joy

My mother brought home the 12 Days Of Christmas by Sabuda and then, the next Christmas, I got this book. Sure, I'm nineteen, but it doesn't matter! This book is absolutly wonderful. The last page is just waiting to be seen, but you can't rush past all the other creations. Anyone who loves their childhood should get this to remember it
