It's a cute cookbook. I like how Arlo and his friends help each other when making pudding. Reading this book makes me happy and warms my heart at the same time; I loved it.

Happy Pudding by Kimberly Gee - 5/5

After being cooped up for too long after a nasty storm Arlo puts together a little something for friends. I love a story that is both kind at heart and shows that you can think of others and try to change their day. This is a great story for children between the ages of 5 to 7, which is a huge bonus in my house. We loved the recipes Arlo prepared and it allowed us the chance to talk about what other things we could do for friends to cheer them up.

Really really cute illustrations, I loved that the book started with a little map. The book was very cute, a little long for the kids to sit through, but we broke it up into chapters. Cute messages with great friends, helping others and including each other. I would love to have this book in my collection, and if I saw it at a bookstore, I would put it in my basket.

This is a cute book for children to read with their parents (or other caregivers). The drawings are nice and I like the theme of the book: friendship. It's a nice read and there's also lots to see in the drawings, which is also nice. I like it!

Happy Pudding by Kimberly Gee is a fun and sweet book for children who are just starting to read on their own. The illustrations are bright and fun. The book also includes a fun activity for children to do with their friends that ties into the story, which helps bring the book to life!

A engaging graphic chapter book for young readers. Arlo is cooking something good with his friends at his house. A fun way to spend the day with friends and enjoying good food. Everyone loves pudding.

So invite a few friends of your own and do Arlo proud!

As an adult, I loved this. I think kids will really enjoy it as it isn’t too long and has such a great message about being alone for a long time and how that can affect us. It also shows the importance of friendship and generosity, and the power of togetherness. I like this series with these characters and this book made me want to read more from this author. The art is adorable and easy to interpret and the characters are very cute and relatable.
If I had kids, I would get this book for them in a heartbeat.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an advanced digital copy in exchange for an honest review.

Happy Pudding is a very cute story about animal friends coming together after a storm. I loved that each animal brought their own contribution to the big pudding, and I liked the recipe for readers to make their own happy pudding! Easy to read, bright illustrations.
