My first grader and I dove into this for our bedtime book recently. I was expecting a quick 40-50 page graphic novel, but we were pleasantly surprised with a 100+ page adventure!
Super Pancake is a grade-school-aged superhero who has much to learn about responsibility. Her brother is off to sailing camp during a week-long school break, and her mother has signed her up to babysit the mini-muffins who live down the road. Super Pancake spends the week learning about how to prioritize tasks and become more responsible.
We spent 3-4 nights reading through this together. While my seven-year-old enjoyed it, I'm also planning to purchase this when it comes out for my classroom. My fifth graders will love this as well!
I had an opportunity to read an eARC of this graphic novel in exchange for my honest opinion. Special thanks to NetGalley and Random House for this opportunity!

This book was so cute. It follows Peggy Pancake, who is a super hero babysitting for the mini muffins. One of the muffins is involved in an incident and chaos ensues for the city. Looking forward to another installment of Super Pancake in the future!

An interesting young graphic novel that emphasizes the importance of friendship, and being a responsible person. While the protagonist learns responsibility through babysitting and superheroing, the friends offer support and help as much as they can in both aspects.
Overall, this is a book that seems to serve the purpose of being a gentle lesson to children on how to be a good person. It is a very easy, quick read and rather wholesome.

THANKS TO NETGALLEY AND THE PUBLISHER FOR THIS ADVANCE REVIEW COPY IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW.
Super Hero is female which doesn't happen a lot. The illustrations were cute. Bonus, The hero was trying to put some effort toward school.

Megan Wagner Lloyd's "Super Pancake and the Mini Muffin Mayhem," gave me nostalgic vibes. In a manner that's reminiscent of Dav Pilkey and Jeff Kinney, Lloyd manages to tell a more creative and feminine superhero tale. And who doesn't love a book about breakfast food?! Adorably bad behaved mini muffins and a croissant sidekick? Sounds like an amazing gig! I'm confident that any further tales of Super Pancake will be just as amazing.

Thanks to Random House Children's, Knopf Books for Young Readers for the copy of this book!
I read this with my 6 and 8-year-olds in two sittings, and they loved it! It’s a graphic novel set up much like Dog Man, except in this book, we get lots of breakfast art and puns. Our favorite was the syrup car the pancake family drove. Both of my kiddos could read this - so it was a win for entertainment and reading practice!

Some things I particularly enjoyed about this book is that the main character is a superhero pancake who is also assumed to be female. The character faces real world issues having trouble completing her schoolwork and staying awake during class due to other activities and responsibilities. I think this is a reality that many kids have today and is very relatable. My only issue with this book is that it is part of a series and since I wasn’t familiar with the storyline from previous books, this one felt like I wasn’t as engaged in the story. Overall this was a fun and enjoyable story for any young reader.
