ABOUT SUPER PANCAKE AND THE MYSTERY OF THE MISSING EGG
It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a . . . pancake? Everyone’s favorite syrupy superhero Peggy Pancake is back! This time, Peggy and her friends are off to camp where they must solve a mystery and thwart the villan behind it before they're all toast!
When we last saw our hero Peggy Pancake, she was pulling off an epic heist to rescue Breakfast Town from the mind control machinations of the Terrible Toast. Now, Peggy’s beloved mentor Professor Egg is missing, and Peggy and her sidekick pals are determined to crack the case! But with no leads in sight, Peggy is feeling completely flattened, and she can’t escape her weeklong school camping trip.
To make matters worse, Peggy's cabinmate Rosie Strawberry is homesick and impossible to cheer up, and all the camp counselors are acting strange. So when a new clue leads Peggy and her friends to the dark wilderness of the Maple Mountains, Peggy can’t help but follow its trail . . . and quicky discovers that all her friends’ happiness might be at stake.
Will Peggy and her friends survive what danger lies in the wilderness? And can she save Professor Egg from a mysterious supervillain’s scheme? Find out in: SUPER PANCAKE AND THE MYSTERY OF THE MISSING EGG!
