Pancakes for Breakfast is a wordless picture book by Tomie DePaola. What fun to gather the kids together and follow this tale of a little old woman and her visions of pancakes dancing in her head. Throughout the book, she works hard to gather all the ingredients together for a fabulous pancake feast!
