About:

 

Join the Gingerbread Man and his class on a school day full of fun activities, and a night full of trick-or-treating, in this graphic novel perfect for the Halloween season.

 

It's Halloween and the Gingerbread Man can't wait to join his class in their celebrations. He even gets to make his very own costume and go trick-or-treating with friends after school!

But when his bat costume catches the eye of a hungry owl, this smart cookie will have to do some quick thinking if he doesn't want to end up as a treat!

The Gingerbread Man’s series of graphic novels—published in both hardcover and paperback editions—is ideal for K-2nd graders, full of the hilarious rhymes and action-packed escapades kids know and love from his picture books.
