If You Give the Puffin a Muffin

If You Give the Puffin a Muffin cover book page
IF YOU GIVE THE PUFFIN A MUFFIN is a hilarious book about an angry bird who wants out of a picture book when he’s given a muffin. Part of a series, with characters from other Timothy Young books showing up to enliven the fun. Highly recommended for kids and adults!
Literary Redhead5 Star Amazon review
This story pokes fun at books like “If You Give A Mouse A Cookie,” “If You Give A Moose A Muffin,” etc. The puffin in this story is self-aware and knows he is in a book, so he decides to take matters into his own hands. He does not eat muffins, and he refuses to play along just to make the author happy. His rants are hilarious and will have adults and children alike laughing out loud.
Teresa Kander5 Star Goodreads review
This is the second Timothy Young book I’ve read to my daughter. This is the freaking cutest book! I honestly wish it was longer. My daughter is 4 and she asks for this book and his other book, “The Angry Little Puffin”, all of the time. It’s written just as if the puffin was having a legitimate conversation with the reader. I wish I could speak to Mr. Young and tell him how fantastic he is!

Everyone’s favorite puffin is back, and guess what—he’s still ANGRY! When Puffin is offered a muffin, he realizes that he’s the subject of another picture book and the target of a rhyming scheme gone wrong. His emotions take over and chaos ensues as he tries to escape the story line. Luckily, Puffin knows just where to turn for help. See what happens when characters from other picture books come to Puffin’s rescue. Timothy Young fans will have fun spotting characters and scenes from his previously published books, as well as references to other children’s classics. Will Puffin get lost in the fantasy worlds, or will he find his way out?
