- Description
Flip Flop Flapjack is a delightful tale based on family stories and the true experiences of Wildhorse Jack—a famous competitor in the Calgary Stampede. With colourful, caricature-styled illustrations from Bruglemans-LaBelle, this book focuses less on winning and more on the importance of community. It also includes a recipe for Wildhorse Jack’s pancakes and facts about the main character and the Stampede. As each page has only a few lines of text, early readers may enjoy this book independently, but the illustrations lend themselves well to storytimes, too. Given the focus on Alberta’s history and community, this book is an excellent way to introduce young learners to this piece of Albertan culture while also supporting lessons about leadership and sharing.
