This irresistible retelling of the Gingerbread Man from the award-winning duo of author Jim Aylesworth and illustrator Barbara McClintock is a perfect treat for cookie lovers everywhere. Children will enjoy chiming in with Aylesworth's charming, rollicking refrains, accompanied by whimsical animal images and a delicious recipe for gingerbread men. * "Aylesworth has done a perfect job of shaping the text to read aloud smoothly with good repetitive phrases that ring true...McClintock's anthropomorphic animals are wonderfully realized...A satisfying version in every way." -- School Library Journal, starred review* "The familiar tale of the cookie that outruns a series of countrified characters until he is outwitted by a fox, finds a fresh makeover... most readers ... may well wish to come back again and again." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review"With a chanting, rhythmic text and vital narrative pictures, this version of the popular folktale will be a favorite for storytelling with young preschoolers." -- Booklist Barbara McClintock has written and/or illustrated over 40 distinguished books for children. Emma and Julia Love Ballet which she wrote and illustrated, received three starred reviews, and My Grandfather's Coat, retold by Jim Aylesworth, also received three starred reviews and was named a Sydney Taylor Honor Book. Her books have five times been named New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Books. She has received a Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor, as well as a myriad of other awards and honors. Barbara lives in Connecticut with her family and their four very graceful cats. Jim Aylesworth tells his stories with generous doses of "out loud" sounds, rhythms, and rhymes. His twenty-five-year teaching career taught him exactly what children love best in a story. He lives in Chicago, Illinois, with his wife. * "Aylesworth has done a perfect job of shaping the text to read aloud smoothly with good repetitive phrases that ring true...McClintock's anthropomorphic animals are wonderfully realized...A satisfying version in every way." -- School Library Journal, starred review* "The familiar tale of the cookie that outruns a series of countrified characters until he is outwitted by a fox, finds a fresh makeover... most readers ... may well wish to come back again and again." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review"With a chanting, rhythmic text and vital narrative pictures, this version of the popular folktale will be a favorite for storytelling with young preschoolers." -- Booklist
