How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat for kids!
Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2016
I bought this book on my kindle paperwhite for my niece. She loves it. She was already familiar with the series but I love that it is available on kindle because it is basically instant. I have the paperwhite and the images are very clear. I know from my niece that she loves reading this book on it. The black and white does not bother her one bit but I assume the book would be black and white anyway. She reads and re-reads this series for pleasure so it's good fun but if you are trying to get a child to read more. She is in fourth grade but has loved arnie doughnut since third.

1.0 out of 5 starsINSIDE IS ALL BLACK AND WHITE AND LOOKS PHOTOIOPIED!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2021
The cover of this soft covered book is colored by the inside is all black and white and looks as if the pages are photocopies. This literally ruins the picture experience for the little ones and makes the story uninteresting top them. Kids like pictures!! If you buy, only buy a hard cover copy or pass unless you want to be disappointed!

3.0 out of 5 stars This Book is so odd and not in the good way that the original Arnie the Donut Book was
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2020

It's written with print and words bubbles kind of like Narwal and Jelly books. The plot is about the donut and his pizza friend going on a gameshow. Not sure what the point of the book was, maybe to teach the ick sound? Really disappointing since Arnie the Donut is such a funny book and interestingly odd.

Arnie and Peezo are so excited when their favorite game show, The Spinny Icky Showdown comes to their town and they are selected to be some of the competitors. As with the other Arnie books, author Laurie Keller provides an enjoyable twist to the story, and ‘The Dough Bros’ as Arnie and Peezo call themselves have to fight off Nick Pumpernickel and compete with several other teams to try and win a beautiful shiny trophy.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for little kids! Cheaply made.
Reviewed in the United States on July 21, 2019

Black and white cheaply printed pages, not as expected at all. My kid was disappointed. Why would they even print this way for little kids?? Boring and uninteresting. I wanted to return, but the shipping would cost me more than the book itself.

My 6 year old loves Arnie the donnut. As a new reader she was getting bored of the same old stories we read our younger daughter. Arnie is silly and entertaining story that she likes to have read to her or for her to read independently.

We are huge arnie fans! The whole series is great- and we still laugh every time we read. My son is 9 ( started donut series years ago with first book) but I still read this one out loud occasionally ( and its one of my favorites!)
