A breakfast built from the ground up

Jack’s wish for a pancake sets a chain of farm and kitchen tasks in motion: grain must be milled, ingredients gathered and prepared, and a fire made for the stove. The story connects a familiar breakfast with the work behind its ingredients, giving its simple premise a practical, food-centered focus. Eric Carle’s collage illustrations are part of the book’s presentation, alongside the sequence of preparations that stands between Jack and his meal.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children interested in food, cooking, or where ingredients come from
  • Families looking for a picture-book story organized around a familiar meal
  • Readers who enjoy Eric Carle’s collage illustrations

Book overview

There's a lot to be done before Jack can have his breakfast in this classic tale by Eric Carle.

The barnyard rooster crows and Jack wakes up--hungry, of course! What does he want for breakfast? A big pancake! But first, Jack's mother needs flour from the mill, an egg from the black hen, milk from the spotted cow, butter churned from fresh cream, and firewood for the stove. Will Jack ever get his pancake?

With his trademark vibrant collage illustrations and a lively text, Eric Carle has created a mouthwatering tale for young readers.
