The Danceing Pancake by Eileen Spinelli

Hi,
I have to say that this book was a fun one to read,
It was all writen in pros
So fun

Here's what the back of the book says

The line into the danceing pancake
curls all the way around the block
Mom helps Ruby Frances wait tables
I fill endless syrup bottles,
napkin holders, shugar jars.
We are busy and wizzy
and spinning through the day.


The grand opening at The Danceing Pancake isntthe only new thing in Bindi's life: new friends, a new apartment, maby even a cute new crush? But there are other changes, like her dad's move to to a new city, that have left Bindi confused wondering: What will happen to my family? Will this new life ever feel normal? Among the unlikely bunch of of regulars who form a makeshift community at the diner, Bindi will try to figure out how to be a new version of herself, one pancake and silly elephant joke (her uncles specialty) at a time. 

Heres what i think:

Age: 9 and up. It was a preaty easy read

Good or Bad? Good i likes that it was in Pros

Scary? 0 not scary at all.

Hard parts: Her parents are thinking of getting a divorce, Grace (one of thire custamers) is homeless, Yes Bindi has a crush on a boy but they are 11 and never even have a conversation.

My favorite charicter: My favorite charicter in this book was Albert her bestfriend/honorary brother. i liked him becuse he was kind of odd. Most of the time all he talked about were bugs. But comeing up right behind him in favorites is Grace. An older homless lady who Bindi loves.

I hope you enjoy it!
