Catch That Cookie!

* "Durand has written a delightfully ingenious story with an altogether appealing protagonist in Marshall. The icing on the cake--er, gingerbread--is Small's wonderful pictures, created in pen-and-ink and watercolor, fill single- and double-page spreads. A wonderful draughtsman, Small uses a fluid line that adds energy to an already lively story and further invests it with wit and whimsy. All of these ingredients combine to make a truly tasty tale." --Booklist, starred review

"Add this to your small shelf of truly special seasonal explorations of belief, but don't wait for a holiday to share it!" --School Library Journal

"A must-have title for any library." --LMC
