Jan Brett's highly original version of the Gingerbread Boy story has quickly become a family classic. Now, the charming tale of Matti's clever trap for the runaway Gingerbread Baby is available as a beautiful board book for younger readers. And it still features a surprise lift-the-flap gingerbread house at the end! Review: Illustrations engage children - This is a precious book for children. The illustrations are amazing. My 5 yo granddaughter wanted me to read it 3 times in a row! Review: A Delightful and Magical Story! - The story itself is adorable and easy to follow, making it an excellent choice for young readers or for reading aloud. It follows the journey of a little gingerbread baby who comes to life and causes all sorts of chaos. The twist at the end is unexpected and delightful, leaving you with a warm and satisfied feeling.

Wonderful detailed illustrations and a great story.
A really amazing board book with very detailed illustrations that I totally adore. Combined with a very clever story of a gingerbread's adventure, is the perfect book for every child and adult. I can't stop looking at these illustrations, this book has made me really happy!

Full story, but board book format
THIS IS A BOARD BOOK. It does have the full story, but I was surprised to recieve a board book when I expected a bigger hardback.

Wonderful winter tradition read aloud
One of our family favorites! This book is engaging, the story is well written and interesting to children as young as 3 and even as old as 12. I especially like the illustrations. They are filled with detail, movement, color, and the many illustrations on the edge of the pages tell a story all their own! It creates wonderful opportunities to talk with children about what might be happening and what might happen next. I have been reading this book to my kids for more than 15 years and needed a new copy. The last page of the book is all of my kids favorite page, with a wonderful surprise under angingerbread house. I recommend this book to all families.

Molto carino
A mia figlia è piaciuto molto, l'abbiamo letto più volte e poi fatto dei lavori intorno alla storia, consigliato per le bellissime illustrazioni di Jan Brett

Très beau livre
C'est un très beau livre que mon bébé adore (on le lit tous les jours !). L'histoire est facile à comprendre et les dessins sont magnifiques. Seul défaut : un peu fragile (la porte de la maison en pain d'épice a été arrachée rapidement).

The sweetest story
My daughter discovered this book at the local library and couldn’t stop talking about it for weeks after it was returned. We gifted it to her for her 3rd birthday and she LOVES it. There is a surprise at the end that is very cute: a wonderful book!!!
