"After tween music superstar Elvis Ruby freezes onstage, he can’t face his fans. So he alters his looks, and changes his name to Aaron, and hides out in rural Pinelands of New Jersey to work in his aunt’s Pancake Palace. Almost immediately, Cecilia, a girl who can’t keep a secret, figures out who he really is. However, she is more interested in enlisting Aaron’s help in solving a musical mystery than ratting him out to the paparazzi. Nan Marino’s Hiding Out at the Pancake Palace sings with humor, wit and plenty of pancakes. (For ages 8 to 12)"
