Our Review Panel says...

There seems to be a universal appeal to children’s stories about food with a mind of its own and this one’s a version of a story I fondly remember capturing my own imagination as a child. In a Gingerbread Man style escapade, one pancake escapes from a hungry family’s breakfast time and begins a runaway adventure that draws in a host of animals along the way. This illustrated version has simple text designed for younger readers.
