About this audiobook
Arnie Looks like an average doughnut, made by one of the best bakeries in town. When Mr. Bing buys him and brings him home to his breakfast table, however, Arnie realizes his carefree days are about to end…unless he persuades Mr. Bing that a doughnut be more than just a snack.

Growing up in Michigan, Laurie always loved to draw, paint and write stories. She earned a B.F.A. at Kendall College of Art and Design, then worked at Hallmark Cards in Kansas City as a greeting card illustrator for seven years. One night, the idea for a children’s book popped into her head and after showing the story to several publishers in New York City, she quit her job and moved there. The following year, that story idea was a published book—The Scrambled States of America. Laurie loved living in NYC, but she returned to her home state, where she lives in the woods along the shores of Lake Michigan.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Arnie, the donut, wants to be bought so bad! He takes a car ride home with Mr. Bing. After getting home, Arnie learns that donuts get eaten! He convinces Mr. Bing not to eat him, and they work together to find Arnie a new purpose! This story had me giggling the whole time and had a really weird but sweet ending. I've never been so invested in the life of a donut before!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a fun fun book about a doughnut who chooses another path in life...he will not be eaten...he has grander plans! I laughed out loud through much of this one.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Arnie is a happy-go-lucky donut, anticipating his great new life with the person who just bought him. When he discovers that the man wants to eat him, all heck breaks loose! I love the illustrataion of Arnie using the cellphone to call the bakery! This donut has a lot of personality.
