From creating Famous Amos Cookies to discovering Simon & Garfunkel, Wally Amos has lived a life of firsts. This mini-biography reveals his tasty life story. Growing up in the segregated South, 'fame' was the last thing on Wally's mind. Fueled by a desire to spread joy with his tasty treat, he had no idea his passion for cookies would explode into a global sensation. But. It. Did. Famous Amos Cookies were a hit! Wally Amos was a household name. Then, he lost it all. Everything. Even the right to use his name and image on future products. Over 30 years later, Wally still believes he's one batch of cookies away from his great comeback.

WINNER OF THE NAACP IMAGE AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING LITERARY WORK—YOUTH/TEENS! It's a summer of family, friendship, and fun fiascos in this acclaimed novel that's as irresistible as a fresh-baked cookie. Ellis Bailey Johnson has the summertime blues. Instead of hanging out with friends, listening to music, and playing his harmonica, Ellis has to help bring his dad’s latest farfetched, sure-to-fail idea to life: open the world’s first chocolate chip cookie store. They have six weeks to perfect their recipe, get a run-down A-frame storefront on Hollywood’s Sunset Boulevard into tip-top shape, and bring in customers. But nothing goes according to plan, especially when family secrets start to surface. Can Ellis bake up a happy ending? Partially based on Shawn Amos’s own experiences growing up the son of Wally “Famous” Amos, and packed with humor, heart, and fun illustrations, this debut novel sings with the joy of self-discovery, unconditional love, and community. “Shawn Amos has written a beautiful story of family and music, of growing up and having adventures, of business building and character building, that is at once very specific and universal. I love Cookies and Milk as much as I love cookies and milk.” –Lisa See, New York Times bestselling and award winning author of Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and Shanghai Girls **Don't miss Ellis's next adventure: Ellis Johnson Might Be Famous
