Pancakes for supper! by Anne Isaacs

coverillustrated by Mark Teague
Toby gets lost in the forest and barters with all the wild animals to secure her escape. The story is highly implausible but don't let that deter you! All the animals speak in deliciously wicked rhymes:

"Girl for dinner! Crunchy! Good!
Roasted on a stack of wood-
Or should I stew her? Yes, I should!
Crunchy fingers! Crunchy feet!
Dipped in honey-very sweet!"
