We want a pancake

We want a pancake!

Seven children are always hungry. One day, when their father asks who wants a pancake, the children shout as loud as they can: ‘Me!’ But while flipping the pancake, it rolls right out the door! It keeps rolling and encounters a whole string of animals. They all eagerly want to taste the pancake, but the pancake keeps shouting: ‘Catch me if you can!’ The pancake outruns everyone. Who will catch it?

The recipe for this book is a cumulative tale, a dash of fresh humor, a hint of nostalgia, a delightful autumn world full of small surprises, and a big fat pancake! A story about daring to go your own way and persevering until you reach your goal. Sophie Pluim’s illustrations are colorful, sweet, witty, and playful, perfectly matching the mood of the text.
