My mom remembers this book from approximately 1963 – 1965 when she was living in Menlo Park, California. It was a thin children’s book and she recalls a character named Uncle Oscar and at some point they make pancakes for breakfast.

I would like to add that this book is also about a little boy and his family. There is a point in time in the book where his Uncle Oscar makes pancakes for everyone for breakfast.
