More About This Book

Overview

It's the day of the Spring Festival, and Holly is helping her Aunt Jessie carry some treats into the car. But Holly loses her balance and drops Aunt Jessie's delicious cookies! Holly's mother, Joan, volunteers to quickly bake some more, and Holly decides to stay and help her mom. Holly is surprised to learn that her mom loves to bake -- just like her! Holly also finds out that her mom and her grandmother used to bake special flower-shaped sugar cookies together. With a twinkle in her eye, Holly digs through Aunt Jessie's cabinet and finds a flower-shaped cookie cutter!

This sweet, delightful story will warm hearts and reinforce the bond between a mother and a daughter -- in true Holly fashion. This storybook comes with two plastic, flower-shaped cookie cutters that children and their parents can use to make their own cookies! Also included is the special sugar cookie recipe at the end of the book that Holly and her mom used. Delicious!

Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature - Sheilah Egan
Family cooperation is the basic theme of this paper-over-board book with an inner spiral binding (making it easy to fold flat). Holly Hobbie is in the middle of loading the car with the cookies Aunt Jessie has baked to take to the Spring Festival when her brother runs into her on his bike. When it is determined that there is still time to replace the ruined treats, Holly volunteers to stay behind with her mother to bake another batch while Aunt Jessie and Robby go to set up the booth at the festival. Holly is surprised that her mother can bake cookies; thus the reader learns that mom no longer "has time" to bake because of family and work demands, etc. The author tries to incorporate one too many themes with the introduction of a cherished cookie cutter that mom used to use when she baked all sorts of goodies. Of course, Aunt Jessie has the cookie cutter stored in the attic and Holly manages to retrieve it for Mom's use. There is nothing actually wrong with the storyline but it just does not ring true as Aunt Jessie says "I didn't know that my sister was such a talented baker!" Robby's behavior is also a bit off-putting as he is not upset in the least that he had ruined the cookies (and even blamed Holly because "You're the one who dropped them, so doesn't that mean that you ruined them?") This title in the "Holly Hobbie" series includes a recipe for Springtime Sugar Cookies and two plastic cookie cutters. One could wish that the cookie cutters matched the design of the one used in the book.
