    About The Gingerbread Man Loose at Christmas

    The holidays are for giving thanks and nothing can stop this Gingerbread Man from delivering his to his favorite member of the community!

    Everyone in class is busy practicing songs and making goodies for their trip to town to thank community helpers, and the Gingerbread Man has made a card for someone extra sweet. But before he can deliver his gift, whipping wind and swirling snow come to town, too. Slushy sidewalks are no place for a cookie, but this Gingerbread Man won’t let a little bad weather stop him!

    “I’ll search on my own, as fast as I can!
    I’ll dash through this snow. I’m the Gingerbread Man!”

    With all the flavors of the season and generous dashes of kindness and gratitude, the Gingerbread Man’s newest adventure makes for a perfect read-aloud throughout the holidays.

    Look for all of this hilarious Gingerbread Man’s adventures: The Gingerbread Man Loose at School, The Gingerbread Man Loose on the Fire Truck, The Gingerbread Man Loose at Christmas, The Gingerbread Man Loose at the Zoo, and The Gingerbread Man and the Leprechaun Loose at School!

    Praise

    “The rhyming text is patter-perfect, with lots of humor and action… A jolly treat with a sweet acknowledgement of the gifts teachers give their students all year long.”—Kirkus Reviews
     
    “Over the course of this book the students dash around town spreading cheer to community helpers. . . .  Lowery’s festive illustrations of cookie and co. . . are a treat, while Murray’s rhymes are continually surprising and satisfying.”—The Horn Book
     
    “Lowery’s childlike figures playfully fill the panels with friendly faces, while the bouncy rhythm,
    particularly the recurring refrain that riffs on the classic ‘You can’t catch me. I’m the Gingerbread Man!’ will make read-alouds a treat.”—Booklist
