Product Description
That popular little character is back looking for friends, in an adventure hell never forget.

Confident and cocky, the Gingerbread Baby happens upon a bakery, where he dances and prances in front of a sugar cookie girl, trying to make friends. But she just stares and doesnt say a word, like all the other sweet treats he tries to meet.

Discouraged, the Gingerbread Baby runs home, chased by a long line of hungry creatures, where Mattie has a fantastic surprise for himgingerbread friends that fill a giant fold-out page.

Irresistible images inside the confectionery and outside in the snowy Swiss countryside will delight Jan Brett fans.

5 out of 5 stars Sweet Read   January 6, 2009
This book is all around beautiful--- the illustrations, the sweet story of finding friends and the gingerbread recipe spread throughout the pages to encourage kids and parents to make their own gingerbread friends! Even my 15 month old loves it because it rhymes and has a pop-up page at the end. Definately a sweet read!

5 out of 5 stars Gingerbread Friends   December 24, 2008
Another winner from Jan Brett, this story starts where "Gingerbread Baby" ends. The Gingerbread Baby loves his house, but wants a friend to play with. While he goes on an adventure to find a friend, Mattie works on a surprise.
A great addition to your book collection.

Find out when you read about his Gingerbread Friends adventure. The Gingerbread Baby is found looking for a friend to live in the house Mattie made for him.
