Derp. I like these usually. The food puns, the advanced language opportunities for children. And this one had a decidedly "Las Veggies" feel.

But this one fell the tiniest bit flat. Maybe it's because I don't think kids will know capers and as such they will not appreciate the antagonist.

Josh Funk does it again! I love the Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast series and sharing their adventures with students.

I am a huge fan of this series and was excited to see another addition! Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast are at it again as they try to figure out what has happened to the refrigerator light. This is a fun continuation of the story with great illustrations and puns!

Oh my goodness gracious! This book was adorable!!! From the story to the illustrations it was BERRY adorable! Perfect book for little foodies in your life!

Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast are back! This time, they have to figure out what happened to the refrigerator light. The entire fridge is dark, except for one place. Las Veggies! I don't want to give too much away, so just go read it!

The illustrations in this are adorable, as always. I love the different foods and how their personalities come through. These books never disappoint, and I always look forward to the next!

Thank you to Josh Funk, Union Square Kids, and NetGalley for an eARC in exchange for an honest review.

Josh Funk did it again!! He penned a delightful rhyming tale that takes you through the refrigerator. Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast are on a mission to discover who turned off the light in the refrigerator? This engaging story will entertain children and adults alike. This book is perfect for children in kindergarten to about third grade. I like using this series to supplement the mystery unit in school.
I look forward to more books in this series. Many thanks to the author, Union Square Kids and NetGalley for a complimentary copy of the book. The opinions expressed in this review are entirely my own.

Kids will never tire of the adventures of Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast, and adults will never tire of reading these books. Why? Because they hit all the sweet spots (pun intended) - rhyming, adventure, fantastic illustration, and lots of laughs.

A very funny story. A great addition to the series. A bit long for a picture book - but fun nonetheless. I enjoyed the rhyming and the fun illustrations! A great reading for fun story!

I received an electronic ARC from Union Square Kids - A subsidiary of Sterling Publishing through NetGalley.
Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast are back for another adventure. This time the Great Light has disappeared from the fridge. Together with friends, they figure out what happened and come up with a plan go get the light back. They even help another character see how important friendship can be.
I appreciate the way Funk continues to develop these characters. The humor is there but readers also see Sir French Toast be vulnerable and admit he is afraid of the dark. This offers them a chance to share their fears too. The artwork is colorful and fun to study. Don't miss the puns for adults too. A terrific read aloud for classes or libraries. Can't wait to see what they tackle next.

Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast are such fun characters and I loved their latest adventure in THE GREAT CAPER CAPER. The whole world that Josh Funk and Brendan Kearney have created in the fridge is astounding and so fun for kids. The rhymes and structure of the story are used expertly. The text contains many rare words for children to build up their vocabulary with. A must read!

I love this series. The illustrations of the food world are detailed, adorable, and hilarious. In the story the characters work together to retrieve the missing light and teach a lesson on friendship.

Absolutely adorable! The story and the rhymes kept me hooked. It was funny and taught a lesson about friendship. I would definitely read this to my Kindergarten class.

I thought that this book had some excellent illustrations!

They were lovely and they brought the story to life

I thought that the book was well written and the book was really well put together, the layout was perfect and the writing wasn’t over the images like it can be in some books, it was nice and clear

My daughter is a big fan of another series that had an evil vegetable in it that she read at school and this is the first in this series we have read – she enjoyed it so much we are now looking to get the rest of them for her!

It is 5 stars from me for this one, a fun read – very highly recommended

Join Lady Pancakes and Sir French Toast as they investigate the missing refrigerator light.

Very cute characters and art style. The rhyming scheme and word choice is great for young readers to stretch their language skills.

The themes in this book may be advanced for young readers and this may open a door for further conversations about ethics in your home. In the end, a less popular food stole the light so that others would have to come to him to get it, and decides to give the light back when he’s caught and when he sees that friendship is important. There are many strands that you could pull there as to the theme of the book.

Thank you to Union Square Kids and NetGalley for the Advanced Reader Copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.

Super cute!! I loved all the different foods that were involved. the rhymes were cute, and the story was fun. It had a good lesson in it as well. I thought the illustrations were super cute. I definitely would read this to me kid.

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this series and I was so happy to see there was another installment! This one delighted me just as all of its predecessors have. It’s just so clever and fun and teaches kids about food while also teaching them really great lessons! This one being about friendship.

I love this series! An Ocean's 11 themed refrigerator heist-yes, please! I want to go see Berry Manilow at Las Veggies. Seriously though, it's vivid illustrations along with the rhyming dialogue and anthropomorphic food make this a entertaining read for both kids and parents.

A great addition to this series, which I suppose does not have to be read in order, but I think is better if you have, this fifth Lady Pancake book is an homage to heist films like Oceans 11. When the light in the fridge is stolen, the friends find a way to get it back. With trademark wordplay, and fantastic worlds in the detailed illustrations, this won't disappoint fans. If it's your first Lady Pancake book, enjoy, but then turn around and grab the original.

Thank you to Josh Funk, the publisher, and NetGalley for the early copy of this book.

Only Josh Funk can make food in a frig funny! Another creative rhyming story with delightful illustrations and silly food themed characters. My students will be super excited to know there is a new installment in this series.

This is a great laugh out loud picture book. All the food related play on words for the character names was really ingenious. We were all the time waiting for which funny food character would pop up next. It was also nice to see the theme of friendship at the end. A great book for a school or home library. Thanks NetGalley for the advanced e-copy.
