I have read this at nursery and have a copy at home. I like the fox eating the gingerbread man at the end of the story.

I liked the gingerbread man and was sad when the naughty fox ate him. I also liked the rhyme.

My favourite character was Mrs Baker because she was kind and she made a little Gingerbread Man. I thought the fox was naughty because he ate the gingerbread man!

I learnt that if you have something and someone does not, you do not tease them. I know that this book is fiction because it is not a non fiction. Although the book is funny I still think the book is lovely. I will recommend this book.

A fiction book. My favourite character was the gingerbread man because he ran so fast. I would recommend this book to my cousins and friends.

It is a fairy tale about a gingerbread man who runs away from the old lady who baked him, from the cow who wanted to have him for tea and then gets eaten by a fox in the end. I would recommend this book.
