Allegra Bakes a Cookie

$26.00

A story about cookies, chaos, and tiny humans “helping” in the kitchen.

If you’ve ever tried baking with a child, you already know:

  • someone will crack an egg directly onto the floor

  • at least one ingredient will mysteriously disappear

  • emotions may become extremely large over butter

  • and somehow there will still be flour in your house three days later

Allegra Bakes a Cookie is a warm, funny picture book about baking together, making mistakes, trying again, and discovering that the best memories are usually the messy ones.

Written by Australian-born NYC mum Melissa Curmi, this story gently introduces executive function skills — things like patience, planning, resilience, focus, and problem-solving — without sounding like homework disguised as fun.

Because little kids do not want a lecture.

They want cookies.

And honestly? Fair enough.
