By Dawn Powell
The Gingerbread Man races through fairy tales—but can anyone catch this cheeky runaway?
Genres
What is Can't catch me! about?
Who can catch the Gingerbread Man? Not the old couple who bake him, for he leaps from the oven and races away, calling, “Can’t catch me!” Soon a lively crowd of fairy-tale characters joins the chase, including the Three Billy Goats Gruff, a grumpy troll, three pigs, a wolf, Jack and the Giant, and Snow White’s friends. With colourful pictures and lift-the-flap surprises, this playful retelling follows the Gingerbread Man as he dashes from one storybook scene to the next.
