Sesame Workshop has partnered with Callaway Digital Arts to create the new “The Great Cookie Thief” book app, starring Cookie Monster.

Based on the 1977 book of the same name, the interactive book app is set in an Old West town plagued by a mystery bandit who steals cookies from local bakeries. Children will piece together the clues and use evidence to solve the mystery.

“Transforming favorite Sesame Street books into innovative e-storytelling is a hallmark of our digital books program,” says Jennifer A. Perry, vice president, worldwide publishing, Sesame Workshop. “With ‘The Great Cookie Thief’ app, Cookie Monster fans young and old can enjoy this hilarious story as a new participatory learning experience.”

“The Great Cookie Thief” is now available in the Apple iOS App Store.
