I like this story, especially the repetition, but it was very sad when the gingerbread man got eaten by the fox at the end of the story.

I liked the gingerbread man the best because I like his song, but I don’t like the fox because he was mean.

Fiction book, my favourite character is the Gingerbread Man, he is so funny because he runs out of the oven, out of the door and everyone chases him. I would recommend this book to my friends.

It was fiction. It was a good book. I learned that we aren’t allowed to run away from home. I like the cow the best. Yes I would recommend to someone else.
