My Project

Run, Run, as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread Man! Catch us reading in the library!

We love Gingerbread Man books in our library!

Help us explore all the silly antics of the Gingerbread Man with these fun books! We compare and contrast the different gingerbread man stories during story time and do fun creative activities after that go along with the stories. There’s so much you can do with these stories, build gingerbread houses with LEGOs, color gingerbread men, act out the story and more!

We never have enough gingerbread man books to go around. We would really appreciate being able to add these gingerbread books to our library! Thank you for reading our project.
