Slow-witted but sweet Weenie the dachshund's hunger creates chaos for him and his pals, sarcastic Frank the cat and gentle Beans the guinea pig.Weenie is hungry (actually, he's famished), but his owner Bob's No. 1 rule is "Never, ever, ever wake Bob up early on the weekend." (Bob's No. 2 rule is "Always follow Bob's number one rule.") Confused, Weenie decides to wake Bob to explain the rules, except…Bob isn't in his bed. There's just a Bob-shaped lump that sounds and smells like their owner. Weenie is positive the lump is a monster that has eaten Bob. Fortunately, it turns out the lump is Bob…but after a rude awakening, he's unwilling to make Weenie pancakes, so Weenie turns to his invention, the Supersonic Pancake Maker. However, the machine makes Brussels sprouts instead, and Weenie, Frank, and Beans are bombarded by the veggies-unfortunately, Weenie didn't invent an off switch. The trio's efforts to dispose of the smelly sprouts fail hilariously, but all's well that ends well. Ideal for budding readers, this quick-moving, action-packed graphic novel features exaggerated cartoonish illustrations. Text density varies from page to page, and fun details-a close-up of Bob's calendar, a diagram of a wiener dog's stomachs (the better to gobble pancakes, Bob's shoes, and couch cushions)-add humor. Bob is light-skinned; other human characters are diverse.A fast-paced narrative infused with silliness that will keep new readers giggling and turning pages. (Graphic novel. 6-9)

Fans of Narwhal and Jelly will love this laugh-out-loud graphic novel: a pancake adventure with Weenie, Frank and Beans featuring wiener dog smooches, a huge pile of stinky brussels sprouts and a whole lot of syrup.

Weenie loves his human, Bob. He loves his guinea pig friend Beans and his cat friend Frank. He loves naps, adventures and sharing. In fact, Weenie loves pretty much everything (except brussels sprouts).

And Weenie SUPER LOVES pancakes. Maybe too much. When the SuperSonic Pancake Maker malfunctions, Weenie knows exactly what to do! Sort of . . .
