    For the day that is in it, can anyone remember a children's story called the above?

    Apparently it's about a boy who eats so many pancakes, he turns into one.

    My friend is insisting they had it as a kid but they can't find any info online. Does anyone remember it?

    I'm trying to find this book for my daughter in law. Surely someone out there has heard of it!

    I totally remember it. I can't find anything online either. It was in a story book with lots of other kids stories. Pancake tommy only ate pancakes so he didn't go to other kids parties. Then he went to the land of pancakes. He comes back from there sick of pancakes. He then starts to eat cakes etc and get invited to parties, happy ever after. That's what I can recall

    I found a book with the story on abebooks. Link

    Here's a google search of the ISBN with lots of links.

    As you can see from here only the abebooks site makes mention of the Pancake Tommy story so it's not certain that this is the right book but it's the most that I could drag up using Google.

    Best of luck!

    Thank you so much for all the info you took the time to look for.
    I just bought a used copy for my daughter-in-law from one of the links you posted.
    I do hope it contains the story she remembers from her childhood. She will be sooo surprised. :)
