Booklist - 10/01/2024 Kat and Ari live for cookie time with Grandpa and his dog, Biscuit. Today, though, they can't wait for the cookies to bake, so they buil[d] a time machine. Though it's made of cardboard and marker, it hurtles them through a rainbow-tinted wormhole, depositing them in the near future. Unfortunately, something went wrong and the cookies have already been eaten. Something goes wrong with every leg of their ensuing travels, sending them too far back, then too far forward again, when they land in a gorgeously rendered, distant sf setting. Here, they find the dream: a Cookie Time store that requires no waiting. But they realize the most important ingredient is missing. Sima once again flexes their conceptual genius in a delightful adventure that will pull kids in from the jump. And if cookies and time travel aren't enough, the soft, pastel color palette is so inviting, as are all the sweet side characters and details. A heartwarming message about family is icing on the cookie. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
