5.0 out of 5 stars great book, lively text, fun illustrations, December 22, 2004
By 
Captain Sygo (Great Northwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Musubi Man: Hawaii's Gingerbread Man (Hardcover)
My kids, aged 6 and 10, and I have enjoyed this book for several years. The story is hilarious and clever without trying to be. Because it's a Hawaiian style re-telling of the gingerbread man, it's familiar, yet fresh and different. The illustrations are great and make the story come alive, but are also filled with enough wacky detail to make them enjoyable to look at again and again. My kids and I have read a lot of books together, most only once, but this one is so great we read it again and again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Teacher gives it an A+!, November 22, 2006
By 
This review is from: Musubi Man: Hawaii's Gingerbread Man (Hardcover)
My Kindergarteners love this book! My city (Las Vegas)has a large Hawaiian population. I asked a parent to make a Musubi Man (using a gingerbread man cookie cutter as a guide)and we had great discussions about his ingredients (which my students were more familiar with than I was!)I'll use this book during every Gingerbread unit from now on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clever twist on the traditional Gingerbread Man story., August 22, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Musubi Man: Hawaii's Gingerbread Man (Hardcover)
The author took the traditional Gingerbread Story, changed it to reflect Hawaiian life, and came up with a delightful fairytale.
