Cookie Chronicles

About The Series

Full of hilarity and heart, this illustrated series features Ben Yokoyama, a quirky, compassionate, empathetic--and literal-minded--eight-year-old boy whose journey begins the day he is advised to "Live each day as if it were your last" in a fortune cookie message, and interprets this as "Today might be the last day of your life. Seize the day!"
