The Gingerbread Girl

Lisa Campbell Ernst

Winner:Florida Children's Book Award -Pre K - 2nd Grade (2008)
Nominee:Washington Children's Choice Picture Book Award -Picture Book (2008)
The lonely old woman and the lonely old man decide to bake a girl this time, but when they open the oven, she runs off like her brother did. Never fear, this smart cookie has a plan to outfox the fox. Will it work? Let's just say that the ending is sweet for everyone.

"Ernst's familiar art, here placed against gingham-check backgrounds, utilizes the oversize format to best advantage, with large characters leaping out of their frames. On the cover, the candy-studded Gingerbread Girl with licorice-whip hair stares boldly out at readers. Kids won't be able to resist following her inside." --Booklist
