Read the following excerpt from The Pancake Thief When Kim went to go see her grandpa outside a few minutes later, I said to Olivia, "Might I ask you a question?" She nodded. "Do you really think there is a thief in your house?" I asked sensitively because I did not want her to think I did not believe her.

She smiled and said, "Tell me what you think, Hannah."

I replied with my thoughts on the situation. "I think that you know that there isn't a thief, but for some reason, you like telling people all about the Pancake Thief."

Read the following excerpt from The Best of Both Worlds.

Hannah thought that she'd observed enough to make a sensible deduction from Kim's grandma's and grandpa's behavior. Hannah said to the old lady, "Do you mind if I ask you a question? Do you really think there is a thief in your house?" Olivia knew that she'd been found out and smiled at Hannah. "I do indeed think you will make a great detective," Olivia said. "There is method to my madness, though," she said with a smile. Then she explained that she and Kim's grandfather had had an argument a while ago about something silly and pointless while Olivia had been making pancakes. Kim's grandfather was so annoyed that he vowed that he'd never eat them again. They both knew it was ridiculous, but neither of them wanted to back down. Olivia explained that if she kept mentioning the idea of a pancake thief, then Grandpa would know that she knew he was taking the pancakes, but he wouldn't have to admit that he'd gone back on his word. "In a way, if things stay the way that they are, I get to keep my silly story, Grandpa still gets to eat pancakes, and there is no damage to anyone. It's the best of both worlds!"
