Children's Literature - Mary Clayton Rowen

This 'rebaked' version of the well-known story is set in Louisiana. As the Gingerbread Boy attempts his great escape, the reader gets a feel for the lay of the land as we follow him through swamps and bayous, past vegetation and wildlife. Interspersed throughout the story, adding further flavor, are various French words and phrases. A neat aspect is the cardboard gingerbread boy that fits into slits on each page. The last page includes a recipe for Cajun Gingerbread Boys.
