In this episode of Storycomic Presents, Josh Funk is back with a sweet mystery twist in his brand‑new picture book Whodonut? A Holiday Mystery (Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast #7), illustrated by Brendan Kearney and coming from Union Square Kids on September 9, 2025. It’s a festive whodunit where pancakes, toast, and even a donut play detective when a beloved “Miss Maple” book disappears during a Holiday Eve party. Josh shares how he crafts rhyme and clues for young readers, how holiday inclusivity shaped the visuals, and what it means to bring this book out on the 10‑year anniversary of Lady Pancake & Sir French Toast. Whether you’re into humorous wordplay, mystery, or picture books that feel like festive puzzles, this episode has something for everyone. Don’t miss the laughter, the clues, and the donut puns.
