Overview
With over half a million copies sold, this charming nursery classic by two-time Caldecott Honoree Paul Galdone is beloved by generations of readers, and just right for little hands to hold during story time.
"Run! Run! Run! Catch me if you can! You can't catch me! I'm the Gingerbread Boy, I am! I am!" This classic tale is perfect for the youngest readers and listeners, with humorous text and vivid pictures by award-winning author/illustrator Paul Galdone.
The Gingerbread Boy has escaped from the oven, and now everyone wants to eat him! See if you can keep up with the Gingerbread Boy as he outruns a little old woman, a cow, and even a field full of mowers. But what happens when he meets up with a clever, and very hungry, fox?
“A wonderfully frenetic cross-country chase is depicted in Galdone’s broadly humorous color wash drawings.” —School Library Journal, starred review
“Galdone’s expressive, unassuming style just right for [a] very young audience” —Kirkus Reviews
