Gingerbread Man by Catherine McCafferty (2012). With its fascinating narrative, the book allows readers to follow the adventures of the Gingerbread Man as he flees from seekers, including the old woman who baked him, intelligent animals, and a clever fox. The drawings are energetic, complimenting the story's fast-paced action and humor. The rhythmic, repeating lines make it a perfect choice for read-alouds, promoting engagement and anticipation.

I can encourage students to identify the story's sequence and main events, helping them understand narrative structure.

The old woman made up her mind, 'If we cannot have a child,' she said, 'I will make one for us.'
