The Cookies & Milk Book Collection is a heartwarming and fun-filled story perfect for the summer season, centered around family, friendship, and entertaining mishaps. The novel follows Ellis Bailey Johnson, who is reluctantly spending his summer helping his dad launch the world's first chocolate chip cookie store rather than enjoying typical summer activities like hanging out with friends, listening to music, and playing his harmonica. With just six weeks to perfect their cookie recipe, renovate a rundown A-frame storefront on Hollywood's famous Sunset Boulevard, and attract customers, Ellis faces one unexpected challenge after another. As family secrets come to light, Ellis must find a way to create a sweet ending amidst the chaos.
Inspired in part by the author Shawn Amos's own childhood as the son of Wally "Famous" Amos, this debut novel blends humor, warmth, and charming illustrations to celebrate themes of self-discovery, unconditional love, and community spirit.
