Flip It
by ReadWorks

"You're like the kitten in the litter that wakes up before all the others." Dad
opened one eye and looked at me. I leaned in and licked his nose. "Argh! I
thought you were going to give me a kiss on the cheek!" he said.

I wiggled under the sheets. "No, Dad! I'm a kitten, remember? You just
said."

"That isn't quite what I meant," Dad said. He hugged me under the covers
and asked what I wanted for breakfast, "Since you're up so early, may as
well eat!"

"I want pancakes," I told Dad, as he lifted me onto the floor.

"Pancakes, eh? That's a big job for just one dad to take on," he said,

spreading the quilt flat over the bed. "I am going to need some help."

At that, I stood still in my red pajamas with the train cars on them. Help Dad
cook? Use the stove? I had gotten burned on the stove before, yanking the
handle on a pan of bacon and splashing some grease onto my fingers.
Suddenly I couldn't move. I wiggled my toes just to make sure I hadn't
turned to stone.

"Meow," I said.

Dad seemed to notice that I was scared.

"It's okay, Jack. I'll help you, you know! But I can't do it all alone if we're
going to make pancakes enough for a hungry kitten and his Dad, too!"

He took my hand and we walked downstairs together. In the kitchen, Dad

took out ingredients from the pantry: flour, sugar, baking powder, oil. I
opened the fridge and handed him milk and two eggs; the recipe only called
for one, but I dropped one onto the floor.

"Never mind, kiddo, no big deal," Dad said, and handed me a rag to wipe up
the yolk.

I cracked the other egg into the mixing bowl, and helped whisk the batter
together while Dad heated up some oil in a skillet. I stood on my little
footstool when he poured the first ladleful of pancake into the pan.

"Ready to flip it, Champ?"

"Dad! No! That's the scariest part! I got burned the last time I touched a
pan!"

"Well, you won't ever get over it if you don't try again, will you? And this
happens to be the part of the pancake-making process where I need the

most help."

Little bubbles began to pop in the middle of the pancake on the stove. The
edges of it were turning brown. Dad handed me a spatula, and I squeezed
the handle while I stared at my breakfast, about to burn unless I acted fast.

My stomach felt like it was full of little birds flapping about, and I
remembered for a second the blister I got from the bacon grease burn. And
then, with one hand, I gripped the handle of the skillet.

"I'm a chef!" I said, and flipped my pancake over with a slap and a sizzle as
the uncooked side hit the pan.

"You did it!" Dad gave me a high-five. "You want to do the rest of them?"

"No," I said. I hopped from my stool and ran to set the table.
