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. This title has Common Core connections Arnie, the Doughnut is a 2004 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year. Review: Our Family's Classic Read - I have bought this delightful book so many times I've lost count! I originally discovered it when looking for a book for a birthday gift for my nephew way back in the early 2000's. Quirky, colorful, and fun, this became a family classic as all the kids constantly requested Arnie the Doughnut as their favorite "read-to-me, please!" book. My most recent purchase is for my new great-nephew! Both hilarious and heartwarming, Arnie navigates the world of friendship as he tries to recreate himself to be seen as something more than to be simply consumed. When I got the book in, it was as charming for me to re-read now as it was the very first time I read it. If you are looking for a lovable character that stands the test of time look no further than Arnie, the Doughnut! Review: Hilarious Book for All Ages! - BEST BOOK EVER!!! Amusing for little ones and hilarious for grown ups!!! Our three year old granddaughter has snuggled up and listened to this book over and over despite its length. We added the plush Arni the Doughnut and we all love him! Heard her the other day say, “Nice to eat you…I mean meet you!!” And she even knew that was humorous ~LOVE THAT!! Every donut shop should sell this:) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #29,369 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #560 in Children's Chapter Books (Books) #1,072 in Children's Friendship Books #1,736 in Children's Humor | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 1,947 Reviews | ## Images ![Arnie, the Doughnut (The Adventures of Arnie the Doughnut, 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819695bDe5L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our Family's Classic Read *by K***. on October 24, 2025* I have bought this delightful book so many times I've lost count!
