Pancake Dreams

(2) K-3 Translated by Elisabeth Kallick Dyssegaard. Illustrated by Mati Lepp. Stefan decides that if he can't be at Grandma's house in Sweden, eating her pancakes, her pancakes will have to come to Jordan where his family has moved. Stefan, his family, and one helpful stranger come up with a series of creative steps to insure the safety of this unusual cargo. The story, illustrated with friendly, knobby art, has a wonderfully low-key way of depicting Western European and Middle Eastern cultures coming together.
