Big little golden book.

Originally published in 1953 in slightly different form by Simon and Schuster

A freshly baked gingerbread man escapes when he is taken out of the oven and eludes a number of pursuers until he meets a clever fox. Run, run as fast as you can. You can't catch me- I'm the Gingerbread Man! Recently discovered in the Golden Books archive, this favorite folktale has been out of print for over 30 years. The early painterly art style of Richard Scarry looks new and fresh again in this keepsake edition. His lively images will run off the pages and into the hearts of a new generation of children
