A deliciously imaginative story about friendship—from the author / illustrator of The Scrambled States of America

Arnie was fascinated as he watched the customers stream into the bakery. One by one, doughnuts were chosen, placed in paper bags, and whisked away with their new owners. Some went by the dozen in giant boxes.

“Good-bye!” Arnie yelled to each doughnut. “Have a good trip!”

“This is so exciting!” Arnie beamed. “I wonder who will choose ME?”

At first glance, Arnie looks like an average doughnut—round, cakey, with a hole in the middle, iced and sprinkled. He was made by one of the best bakeries in town, and admittedly his sprinkles are candy-colored. Still, a doughnut is just a doughnut, right?

WRONG! Not if Arnie has anything to say about it. And, for a doughnut, he sure seems to have an awful lot to say. Can Arnie change the fate of all doughnuts—or at least have a hand in his own future? Well, you’ll just have to read this funny story and find out for yourself.

Review:

"Filled with offbeat humor....Kids will eat it up." School Library Journal

Review:

"Keller has composed a variation on a theme of Charlotte's Web. Only — here's the goofball genius part — she has compressed all that book's charm into one-fourth the space with three times the laughs (giggles mostly, but also snorts and snarfs), using as a main character not a pig named Wilbur but a doughnut named Arnie." The New York Times

Review:

"Keller's riotous collages...which are filled with gleeful puns, winning characters, and over-the-top silliness, are as manic and fun as a sugar high." Booklist

Synopsis:

From the author and illustrator of "The Scrambled States of America" comes this deliciously imaginative story about a doughnut named Arnie who sets out to change the fate of all doughnuts. Full color.
