The Pancake Trap SC Spotlight

 

 


 

As a truck festooned with helium balloons pulls past Dot's Diner, a statue of the founder holding a plate of pancakes rises above the two-story building. Yet as a fire truck, and other vehicles pulling floats entertain the spectators, drones fly through the air. The assembled crowd gaze up as the drones fly before the immense statue, holding a sign. Why do the drones spell doom for the historic diner? And can the current owners save their beloved business?

Here's all the info from Oni Press: 

 

THE PANCAKE TRAP SC

 

WRITTEN BY STEPHANIE YOUNG
ART AND COVER BY ALLYSON LASSITER
 
Join Maple and Margaret Sanford in The Pancake Trap as they learn that differences can be strengths, change can reveal who we truly are, and that love is thicker than batter.
 
Maple and Margaret Sanford might be sisters, but they couldn't be more different. Ten-year-old Maple is a pancake-obsessed griddle cook determined to save their grandma's failing restaurant, Dot's Diner. Margaret is a college-bound beauty queen who can't wait for their mom to sell the run-down restaurant. 
 
On the last day before Dot's Diner will be sold to the town's multimillionaire mogul, the girls are thrown into a dangerous food-themed treasure hunt, looking for gold left by runaway outlaw Crispy Cruller. Joined by a trusty friend, helpful robot drone, and adorable pup, Maple and Margaret will dive deep into the twisted caves and caverns underneath their town facing one syrup-sticky flapjack trap after another. With nothing more than their grandma's cookbook clues to guide them, will the Sanford Sisters be able to put their differences aside, find the loot, and save Dot's Diner before it's too late?
 
From the creators of Star Beasts, Stephanie Young and Allyson Lassiter's newest adventure is stacked full of fun foodie hijinks and features ten pancake recipes to make at home.
