5.0 out of 5 stars Cute and funny November 23, 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
My 3 year old loves this book. The illustrations are funny at the end of the story where the gingerbread man is actually "yelling" to the fox. I bought this as party favors for his birthday party. P.s. this story starts differently than the original. It does not talk about a woman who wanted a child so badly.... instead it just starts out that there was a man, a woman and a child ....

4.0 out of 5 stars Good version July 3, 2008
Format:Paperback
The version of the Gingerbread Man is good for first grade readers. The gingerbread man runs away from the little boy, the old woman and man, the farmers, a bear, a wolf and meets a fox at the end who just eats him up on the path - there is no crossing the river at the end. It's a good book for the price, and great for a beginner reader.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cant catch me September 16, 2004
Format:Paperback
This version of the Gingerbread man is pretty close to what I remember as a child. At some points it seems a bit repetitious but I believe that the original was as well. Its a fun story for a snow day, when you are home baking cookies.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not an easy read
This is not a book preschool aged children have the attention span for. Kindergarten or 1st grade would be better suited for this story.
