Adorable! The Gingerbread Man meets Little Red Riding Hood, done very well! I can't wait to read this to my kindergarteners, even though we're technically done with gingerbread. In this story, the cookie is baked by a fox (!) for his grandmother's birthday. The cookie steals a red cape, escapes through the forest, and ends up at grandmother's house anyway.

Fun and engaging story! Great example of a twisted fairy tale
