Product Description

RUN, RUN as fast as you can.
You can’t catch me—
I’m the Gingerbread Man!

Recently discovered in the Golden Books archive, this favorite folktale has been out of print for over 30 years. The early painterly art style of Richard Scarry looks new and fresh again in this keepsake edition. His lively images will run off the pages and into the hearts of a new generation of children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!`, October 19, 2007
This is a great version of the classic story, with fantastic illustrations by Richard Scarry. The images are bright and detailed, and my two year old LOVES this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars More sturdy than regular Little Golden Books, February 24, 2009
By Teacher "Trish T" (Santa Rosa, CA) - See all my reviews
This is excactly the same as a Little Golden Book, but with a sturdier cover so it should last longer. A very cute story!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very large book!, December 30, 2008
A Kid's Review
Was I ever surprised when I got this in the mail. The book is a nice-size book; nothing like any of the smaller Golden Books that you find in the stores. I try to get all my Christmas books on sale, but it is well worth the $8.99 splurge.

And to be quite frank, I'm not a big fan of Richard Scarry books, but this is a nice addition to my collection of Gingerbread books.
