This warm, feel-good tale of friends working together to make delicious pancakes is the ultimate comfort food read. (goodreads summary)
Cat loves to wake up on Sunday mornings and make pancakes. But there are a couple of main ingredients missing. So Cat calls on Rabbit and Moonbear to borrow milk and eggs and invites them over for a pancake breakfast. Rabbit brings blueberries and carrots and Moonbear brings honey to share. A couple of clumsy mishaps cause a little chaos in the kitchen. But the friends manage to pull it off and make some very special pancakes for everyone.
This was a cute and easy-to-read picture book that may have the family thinking about warm stacks of pancakes on a Sunday morning. The soft page colors were sweet and pleasing. The text is simple and short for a quick read for the little ones. The characters were joyful working together while cooking in the kitchen despite a few messy incidents but they soon enjoyed a wonderful breakfast that they created themselves. It is filled with happiness, friendship, working together and having fun cooking. At the end of the book, there is Cat's Sunday Pancake recipe included for you to gather the family and make your own special Sunday morning breakfast together. I think this is a "just right book" for ages 3-7.~
