Cookie & Broccoli: Scariest Halloween Ever!: A Graphic Novel cover

Broccoli’s not a fan of his classmates’ scary pranks, but his best buddy Cookie has an idea - he’ll lend Broccoli his superhero costume, and Super Broccoli won’t be afraid anymore! That is, until the ultimate fright has Broccoli fleeing for the big, scary woods behind their school, where he comes across someone in a Sasquatch costume. (It is just a costume . . . right?) Cookie and Broccoli’s classmates learn an important lesson about scaring others and making assumptions about newcomers (yes, even big, hairy Sasquatches). Fans of early graphic novel series like Pizza and Taco and Narwhal and Jelly will adore this latest Cookie & Broccoli offering, which is chock-full of punny costumes (a garlic dressed like a vampire, anyone?), silly asides from the duo’s good friend Blueberry, and even a fun Halloween-themed activity for readers near the end of the book.

"This newest addition to the early graphic novel series gives readers a story of acceptance and overcoming obstacles, with not only their friends but also within themselves. Anthropomorphic food friends give the graphic novel a more comical side that only adds to the storytelling . . . readers will enjoy the colorful, easy to decipher illustrations throughout. Be prepared for laughter. Fans of 'Pizza and Taco', 'Elephant & Piggie', Narwhal and Jelly', or any Dav Pilkey books will love this graphic novel." —School Library Journal
