Beauty Cookson is no beauty. She's a plain, timid girl who constantly feels inferior to the super-confident, snooty girls at school. Worse than the teasing in the playground, though, is the unpredictable, hurtful criticism from her father. Beauty and her meek, sweet mother live in uneasy fear of his fierce rages, sparked whenever they break one of his fussy house rules.

When a mysterious sound interrupts Cookie Monster's snack time, he follows that sound—hoping to find something tasty! Instead, he discovers super silly mysteries featuring a tap-dancing dinosaur, a not-so-sleepy baby, a mischievous monkey, and more surprising friends. With help from his Sesame Street pals, Cookie Monster learns to ask questions, follow clues, and stay focused (well, sort of). While nothing beats om-nom-nomming cookies, solving mysteries with friends comes pretty close.
