  | Full Text Reviews: School Library Journal - 02/01/2018 PreS-Gr 1—Asch adds a new title to his popular series. The Bear family is enjoying a pancake breakfast so much that Baby Bear suggests they spend the day in pajamas and "eat pancakes all day long!" His parents agree; and dressed just as they are, they read stories, nap, take a walk in the park, and ride bicycles. They have so much fun that they inspire the whole town to join them in a bicycle parade topped off by a Pancakes in Pajamas party. Asch's trademark simple, flat paintings set in frames show the bears delighting in their day. The narrative is similarly straightforward with short sentences and easy-to-decipher vocabulary. VERDICT A welcome addition to a series that encourages family time and simple pleasures, with a little dose of "silliness." Good for storytime and on-on-one reading.—Lisa Lehmuller, Paul Cuffee Maritime Charter School, Providence - Copyright 2018 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
