NEW GRAND OPENING!

 

The grand opening of the Dancing Pancake isn't the only new thing in Bindi's life: new friends, a new apartment, maybe even a cute new crush? But there are other changes, like her dad's move to a new city, that have left Bindi confused and wondering: What will happen to my family? Will this new life ever feel normal? Among the unlikely bunch of regulars who form a makeshift community at the diner, Bindi will try to figure out how to be a new version of herself, one pancake and one silly elephant joke (her uncle's specialty) at a time.

 

With plenty of surprises, milk shakes, fake spiders, and real feelings, readers are sure to flip for the sweet mix of humor and heart in The Dancing Pancake.

Praise for The Dancing Pancake

"Spinelli truthfully charts an emotional journey. The free-verse sections will invite reluctant readers to follow along in this moving story of friendship and growth."--Booklist

"Bindi's free-verse narration makes for smooth, simple reading; Lew-Vriethoff's line drawings add spirit."--Kirkus Reviews
