Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast (Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast, 1) Hardcover – Picture Book, September 1, 2015

The media could not be loaded. Hilarious - both for kids and adults! Baron von Waffle and an avalanche of beans. The writing and illustrations are wonderful.

Purchased this book for my 8 and 6 year old boys for bedtime and we really enjoyed it. The art was beautiful and the story was cute. They both asked about getting more in the series since they enjoyed it so much!

I purchased this story for my son when he was younger due to the "getting along" and "sharing" themes. I was just hoping for something to help drive home the point of not being a little tyrant, but the story is actually clever, fun, and exceptionally well written. It's wonderful to read out loud. The illustrations are both pretty and relatable, and my son really enjoyed the fold out page at the end. He is now five and still requests that we read this story.The story revolves around two "leftover friends" in a epic race through the refrigerator to get the last drop of syrup.If I had to mention a weakness (*spoiler alert*) it's that at the end, Toast and Pancake eat the Butter, who is also "alive" in the refrigerator. Butter doesn't seem too upset, as he is smiling, and my son has never considered this point (and I don't mention it). That being said, I still like this book.

The story and the art are so fun and cute! I love that it's about food, but ultimately, that sometimes we have to be okay with not winning and just sharing. We checked this book out at the library, and I immediately had to have it for our family book collection. I can't wait to order the rest of the series.

My 2.5 year old daughter really loves this book now that she is stringing her own words and thoughts together. I define the bigger words ("rappel" "seafaring") and describe the foods new to her ("chili" "legumes" "sauerkraut"). She loves the adventure & race and we both appreciate the lesson of the story to not fight but rather share. It applies well to my daughter's daily adjustments to playing with her 1 year old brother. The most fun we have is retracing the steps of the race in the fold-up page of the refrigerator in the back of the book. I'd like to thank the author Josh Funk for his playful clever story that sings in rhyme and adds wonderful words to my daughter's growing vocabulary. This is a great gift for any young person's library. I will treasure it and I believe it will become a keepsake as we continue to read it for the next 4 to 5 years with my son as well.

We have read this book for 11 years as it is one of my children's favorite books. It's a fun book to read to young and older kids! Very creative writing and images. A must for every family's bookshelf! Truly a super fun book! Will make you want to eat some yummy food =)

We purchased this book a few years ago and recently bought two more as baby shower gifts. We all know that reading is important but it is great when an adult can enjoy the story too. The book has two main characters, a male and female, but it is the creative style that works in so many different foods that makes this book fun to read.

This story makes my kids and me laugh. The adventure of the breakfast foods through the fridge is very relatable as they battle towards the race to the maple syrup. The rhyming is on point and the illustrations are engaging!
