​If you love pancakes and picture books, then this is the perfect book for you:

​TITLE: PLENTY OF PANCAKES
AUTHOR: Carrie Finison
ILLUSTRATOR: Brianne Farley
PUBLISHER: G.P. Putnam’s Sons Books for Young Readers
OPENING LINES:
Early one morning, as spring breezes blow,
Topsy hauls bags through fast-melting snow.
She quickly unpacks, and then studies her plan--
A “Welcome Spring!” feast for her good friend LouAnn.

Topsy is planning a “Welcome Spring!” feast for her hibernating bear friend, LouAnn, who readers might remember from the prequel to this book, Dozens of Donuts. But, like LouAnn, Topsy runs into a bit of trouble. Each time she makes a stack of five pancakes “hot from the pan” the disappear! Who keeps eating them? Eagle eyes will spot who the thieves are before Topsy uncovers the mystery, but that doesn’t make the ending any less delicious. Brianne Farley’s cheerful illustration and Carrie Finison’s rollicking rhyme, complete with pancake-laden end papers, adorable woodland creatures, and themes of friendship, cooperation, and community, make Plenty of Pancakes a perfect read-aloud and the perfect addition to your bookshelf.
