The barnyard rooster crows to tell Jack it's time to get up. It's very early in the morning - and Jack is so hungry that what he really wants is a large pancake for breakfast. But first, Jack's mother needs flour from the milk, an egg from the black hen, milk from the spotted cow, and butter churned from fresh cream. Will it ever be time for breakfast and that large pancake?

Pancakes, Pancakes! is a delightful story of an old-fashioned breakfast. Modern-day pancake mix holds little charm compared to starting from scratch, and young readers will wish they , too, could have real pancakes, pancakes!
