This audio book has no read along for kids, a big disappointment!
Great classic! 2006-11-13
Paul Galdone's adaptation of The Gingerbread Buy is a wonderful version of the story. It is great for teachers and for families. I use it in my classroom every year with my first grade students.
Great book for kids 2005-12-23
This is one of the great books for parents to get for their kids bookshelves. I've really enjoy reading this book when I was kid. It's about a childless old couple who got lonely and the old woman decide to bake herself a gingerbread boy, who ran away once done and kept on running from and cow and a horse, but only to end up getting outsmarted and eaten by the fox. A great classic tale and racy read. You even found yourself running along the gingerbread boy as you read this book.
Classic tale 
2004-03-05
An old woman and an old man have no kids, so the old woman makes a gingerbread boy. When she opens the oven, the gingerbread boy jumps out and runs away. He gets chased by the old woman and old man, a cow, a horse, and some farmers out threshing. Eventually, a fox manages to catch the gingerbread boy through cunning, and the fox eats him up. Some kids may find the story quite scary, and may find the unhappy ending a bit disconcerting. But it's a classic tale and quite engaging. The book has about 1300 words.
Terrific story for 3 year olds! 2000-05-26
You can't catch me, I'm the Gingerbread Boy! "The classic tale of the old couple, with no children of their own, who bake a gingerbread boy to keep them company...A wonderfully frenetic cross-country chase is depicted in Galdone's humourous colour wash drawings. Of the eight editions of this well-known story now in print, this hilarious version is the most delectable."
Perfect for a thematic unit on Gingerbread. 1999-12-14
I will be reading this book along with some other similar titles to my youngsters. The pictures are very vivid and the repeated patterns make it easy for children to follow!
