What does the future hold for these two friends? They have lots of guesses that are a very funny mix of excitement and anxiety. But the only way to know for sure is to actually turn the page!
In this companion to Bookie & Cookie, the friends find themselves on a blank page, wondering what might be next. Bookie imagines something wonderful such as a bright sunny day, but Cookie worries that it might be something terrible, like an awful stormy day. "We might find a field full of butterflies," Bookie suggests, but Cookie is afraid it might instead be a marsh full of mosquitoes! Will Bookie ever be able to convince his nervous friend to turn the page and find out? A delightful surprise is waiting there.
"Childlike crayon drawings fill each page with color and bring the story to life. This story teaches young children the importance of mindset and perspective, making it a first purchase for all collections." —School Library Journal
