Children and their parents and grandparents will love these stories of family life, entitled The Pancake Stories because they begin with Timothy Taylor’s adventure in making breakfast for his parents.

Now at last they are published, both in the original English and in Noël Chilton’s Spanish translation. All the Pancake Stories are about Timothy Taylor and his family: his mother, his father, and his eccentric aunties. A horse who goes to the movies, a cat who has too many kittens, and a dog who makes everyone laugh are all part of Timothy’s world. Read these stories aloud. They will remind you how much fun it is to be a child.
