The imagination in these books are just astonishing. This tale has Pancake and Toast freezing. Something has come over the fridge and they have to find the culprit and get to defrosting. They will even make some new friends while they are at. This book is a literal food fight. And I can not help but imagining what is waring in my fridge. ( )

Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast, along with their nemesis, Baron von Waffle, return in this third rhyming picture-book romp devoted to their adventures. Noticing a distinct chill in the air, the breakfast foods are enlisted by Agent Asparagus to help get to the bottom of the matter, only for that vegetable to disappear. In desperation, the duo turn to the Baron, who, in a surprising move, agrees to help. But is all as it seems in the refrigerator/freezer world...?

Pairing author Josh Funk's entertaining tale told in rhyme with illustrator Brendan Kearney's colorful artwork, Mission Defrostable is a fun addition to this picture-book series, and would make for an excellent read-aloud selection. There are some unexpected developments - quite appropriate, in a mystery! - and a sweet happy ending in which the bad guys turn out to not be so bad after all. Recommended to anyone who has read and enjoyed Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast and/or The Case of the Stinky Stench, or who is looking for engaging picture-book adventures. ( )

The refrigerator is getting too cold and all the food inside is freezing! It's up to Lady Pancake and Sir French Toast to travel up into the freezer to sort out the root of the problem.

This book is funny, full of puns and tongue-in-check humor. The illustrations are lively. Children are likely to enjoy this book, but for some reason I can't quite place my finger on, it just didn't do it for me. ( )
