Customer Reviews

Wonderful!!

I was looking everywhere for the classic book that I read as a child about the gingerbread man. I finally found this one and it is wonderful. My son loves it! Any child's collection is not complete without this.

Great Children's Classic

I bought this book for my grandaughter about 18 mounths ago. It was her favorite book at our house for a very long time. Now I am ordering it for 3 of my great nephews. The book is delightful. The time honored version is printed on quality paper, nicely bound and beautifully illustrated. I highly recommend it.

Adorable Book

This adorable book is wonderfully written and the pictures are very cute. I would recommend this book to children over 18mo. This is the one where the Gingerbread man is made in the oven by a little old lady who wanted a child and it ran away and in the end it gets eaten up by a fox who was having the gingerbread trust him to get across the river. I highly recommend this book. My husband was more excited about this bk when it came in the mail,than our daughter because you really don't see this version around anymore.
