Format: Softcover
This is a wordless picture book perfect for pre-readers and readers alike. The woman wakes up thinking of pancakes. She looks up the recipe and starts to make the pancakes. But she realizes she is missing eggs, so she has to go out and get eggs from the chicken. Then she realizes she is out of milk, so she has to go get milk from the cow. Next, she realizes she needs butter, so she makes butter out of her milk. Finally, she needs maple syrup so she goes out to buy some. When she returns her cat and dog have made a mess of everything and it looks like she might not get her pancakes, until she smells pancakes next door. This is a good book for pre-readers to see the structure of a story. They can also hold the book and "read" it without adult intervention if they so choose. The softcover version of this book will need adult supervision so pages are not ripped out. This is a good book for infant, and toddler story time. The images are fun to look at and as children get older they will start to understand more and more what is happening.
