Product Description
That popular little character is back looking for friends, in an adventure he’ll 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 doesn’t 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 him—gingerbread 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.

My first graders loved Jan Brett’s new book, Gingerbread Friends. It is a great sequel to Gingerbread Baby. A must buy to add to a Gingerbread book collection

Jan Brett’s story and illustrations are never a disappointment! A sequel to “The Gingerbread Baby”, the Gingerbread Baby explores outside of home in search of a friend and finds that there is “no place like home”! The wonderful illustrations allow you and your little reader to follow a recipe and bake your own gingerbread baby! It’s definitely a good seasonal story to read with a special child!
