(3) K-3 Translated by Teresa Mlawer. Illustrated by Felicia Bond. If you give a pig a pancake, you may end up exhausting your maple syrup supply, searching for a rubber ducky, building a treehouse, and taking pictures for all the piggy's friends. This Spanish edition of If You Give a Pig a Pancake is as breathless as the original, and the crisp illustrations, full of humorous details, are as good an accompaniment to the text as syrup is to pancakes.
