The Gingerbread Man by Ronne Randall
A touch and feel book telling the story of the gingerbread man. Children can repeat the "run, run, as fast as you can, you can’t catch me! I’m the Gingerbread Man!" on each page. Board book with great textures to explore.
Gingerbread Friends by Jan Brett
The Gingerbread Baby lives inside a gingerbread house, but decides he needs some adventure! So he leaves the house to find some friends of his own. He tries to befriend different baked goods in a bakery, but they don’t move or answer him. So he runs back home, where he finds that gingerbread friends were waiting at his gingerbread house the whole time! Very cute and great illustrations.
Gingerbread Mouse by Katy Bratun
A little mouse has her home ruined by a falling branch, and has to find another place to live. She spies a gingerbread house through a window, and decides to live there, but when she has a chance encounter with Santa, she finds an even better home! The perfect Christmas-themed story.
The Gingerbread Bunny by Jonathan Allen
This lift-the-flap book is a take on the gingerbread boy story – but this time it’s a gingerbread bunny. Can the gingerbread bunny outrun those who chase him? Or will he meet the same end as the gingerbread man?
The Gingerbread Girl by Lisa Campbell Ernst
Another take on the classic story, but this time the gingerbread boy’s sister is the main character (the gingerbread girl!). She meets up with the famous fox, but comes to a much different end than her brother, as she is able to tame the fox and use him as transportation!
