Don't Melt In This Heat – Book Review of Mission Defrostable

Synopsis: “Our favorite breakfast food friends are back and all bready for their next adventure! Can they save the fridge before all the food is iced? It’s mission . . . defrostable.

“And now with the two of you out of the fold,
I’ve got my revenge and I’m serving it cold!” 

Brrr! There’s a frost in the fridge—and it’s hardened Pudding Pond and frozen Yogurt Falls. Agent Asparagus is on the case, and she begs Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast to join her superspy team. But when the enemy snatches Asparagus, Pancake and French Toast have only one dough man to turn to for help: the evil Baron von Waffle! Will he help them save the fridge . . . or are they doomed to become frozen food? ” (Taken from Goodreads)

Review: I’ve loved Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast from their first race through the refrigerator for the last drop of syrup. In this third adventure I was delighted to see some familiar faces and new characters with tons of great rhymes that you’d never expect to see in a children’s book (curly fry chains… plantains). I don’t want to give too much away and spoil your experience, but I was delighted to see (a female) Agent Asparagus. And the ending was just perfect, bringing you back through some of the other stories and ending with a fold down spread of the refrigerator I know and love… now to go find some breakfast!

Twitter Booktalk (280ish characters or less): Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast are back with a new adventure to save the fridge from a frosty chill! They’ll be joined by some familiar faces in the most recent rhyming refrigerator romp!
