'Like the classic tale "The Gingerbread Man", this cumulative story relies on repetition and rhythm. Children will gobble this one up and ask for more.' -- Kirkus Reviews 'What elevates this simple tale is the beautiful watercolor illustrations that are vivid, highly detailed, and give readers a sense of place. Children will almost hear the leaves rustling in the wind and smell ripening apples in the trees as the animals crash through the autumn forest.' -- School Library Journal 'A repetitive story with a lovely rhythm. This book. has the same joyful quality as the Gingerbread Man.' -- Kindling 'Attractive watercolor and colored pencil drawings emphasize the pancake and its parade of predators, pulling the eye horizontally across the scenes as the chase comically proceeds.


This was a cute and playful story. It would make a good read aloud' -- Youth Services Book Review 'The art is lovely and the cast nicely updated and diverse. A must-have if you do any kind of stories or storytelling with folktales.' -- Flying Off My Bookshelf 'Illustrated in vibrant colours and with a cheeky runaway pancake as the protagonist, this playful story with rhythmic text will get your children engaged and smiling for sure!' -- thekidsbookstagrammer (Instagram) 'The cumulative elements throughout the story make this a fun read. that had my boy giggling at the absurdity of the boastful pancake being put back in its place.' -- Storybook_mamma (Instagram) 'A colourful and modern retelling of a well known classic and it had us giggling from beginning to end!. Definitely one that we will read over and over again.' -- Mum of Boys Northeast (Instagram) 'Delightful watercolour illustrations add a fresh feel to this old favourite.
