In a snowy and faraway land, the Gingerbread people live in a secret world where life is always sweet. Nestled against majestic sugar dusted mountains and crisscrossed with chocolate rivers,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is not really a book for a read aloud but more for the beautiful pictures, short stories and recipes. I read parts of it to my class when we do a gingerbread unit...beautiful! the kids were mesmerized
A Beautiful book

What a beautiful book, I hated to put it away after Christmas. The cover is gorgeous ! Each page is illustrated with such lovely pictures of different Gingerbread houses. The text on every page is full of interesting facts about Christmas as well as a delightful story about Gingerbread Land. I realy like that on each page there's a bonus little card insert with recipes and crafts to do. This book would be a nice gift for someone who loves Christmas.
Gingerbread but so much more

I loved this book!!I own many, many gingerbread books but this is sooo much more. If shared with a slightly older child(ren) you could take advantage of the many recipes and crafts and make it a true Christmas expereince. HOW FUN!!!! A younger child would enjoy the pictures but it is not intended for a toddler or young preschooler as the text is creatively elaborate. I think it could be a really fun book to share as a grandma and then use the activities as reading-re-enforcers. I felt it was worth every penny and LOVE IT as an adult. It will be put out every year for young and old to enjoy with my gingerbrerad-themed Christmas!!!
