2 primary works
Book 3
Shh...Cookie and Broccoli's lips are sealed! That is, until the whole school happens upon Broccoli's hiding spot and overhears his super-secret nickname — and are much more encouraging than he expected. Then, Talking Rock gives the duo a cryptic clue to solving Broccoli’s boredom — the solution is the opposite of boredom. Well, the opposite of boredom is the Funnest Thing Ever, right? Cookie and Broccoli try a silly screaming contest, a bubble-blowing party, and a real-life food pyramid, but the true Funnest Thing Ever might have been in front of them all along. And it’s even more enjoyable when it’s not a secret anymore!

Cookie & Broccoli: Scariest Halloween Ever!: A Graphic Novel
by Bob McMahon
Published 13 August 2024
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.
