The classic story of The Gingerbread Man retold with simple text and delightful illustrations. When the Gingerbread Man runs away from the old lady's oven, the whole village is soon chasing after him. First Reading Level Three titles help beginner readers develop reading stamina and include character sheets or maps and the main story. Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton.
For every parent, child and teacher weary of the monotony of the average reading scheme, Usbornes First Reading series will offer rays of sunlight. The books are carefully levelled and offer a huge variety of accessible and fun, fiction and non-fiction. * Tamara Linke (Proprietor, Tales on Moon Lane Bookshop) *
