San Francisco’s beloved Bob’s Donuts has officially leveled up from legendary late-night snack spot to children’s book hero. 🍩

A Sweet Tale of Adventure

Local author Leah Wolfe Hearst has transformed the iconic donut shop into a whimsical children’s book called “Bob’s Donuts for Breakfast,” featuring an epic quest by a dog and squirrel determined to score some epic pastry goodness. Talk about taking your breakfast mission seriously!

More Than Just a Book

What started as a daily ritual of her kids begging for Bob’s Donuts every single morning turned into a full-blown creative project. Hearst didn’t just write a book - she collaborated with Bob’s Donuts to host a kid-driven donut design contest, with the winning creation, “Taste of Clouds,” actually being added to their menu. We’re calling that peak Bay Area innovation.

From Page to Plate

Now fans can grab the hardback book for $20 at Bob’s Donuts locations across San Francisco, including their new Polk Street spot. Who said breakfast can’t be an adventure? Certainly not these animal protagonists on a donut-fueled mission!

The book is a delightful love letter to a San Francisco institution that has been serving up deliciousness for 65 years - proving that sometimes the sweetest stories are the ones right in our neighborhood.
