What is The ninjabread man about?

In ancient Japan, two ninja warriors long for a child, so they follow a recipe to bake one. Their creation springs from the oven as the Ninjabread Man: quick, cheeky and packed with ninja skills. He races through the village, leaving confusion and chaos behind him as his creators and a crowd of determined chasers try to catch him. This lively retelling of The Gingerbread Man mixes classic fairy-tale fun with Japanese-inspired ninja action and a mischievous twist.
