“Ha, Ha! Hee, hee! You‘ll never find me. I‘m the Gingerbread Baby. Catch me if you can.”
I would love to use this book and explore the idea of windows and foreshadowing with my students.
In Jan Brett‘s “Gingerbread Baby” published in 1997, the gingerbread baby hopped out of the oven off the baking tray because Matti Peaked before he was done being baked. The Gingerbread Baby goes on to create mischief by hopping across boars, tying girls‘ braids together, and running all over the pace. He continues to run around and cause a ruckus when Matti gets the idea to bake him a house and trap him!
I like how the text rhymes. A lot of students love this book and I can see why!
