The gingerbread man and woman need a new home! A team of kids struggle to create the perfect gingerbread house. The project guidelines are clear: the winning house must stand upright on its own and a gingerbread boy and girl must fit inside.
Sounds easy?
But creating is hard. Cookie burn, the icing it too thin, the house caves-in, someone is eating the candy decorations, and, Oh!, they forgot about putting the gingerbread boy and girl inside the house.
Bake Christmas cookies and read! Amazing read aloud for the younger kids.
Engineering is a creative process. That means you must learn to overcome problems and persevere.
Inspire budding engineers to think about the classic gingerbread house in new ways.
Written in a lyrical rhyme, it's sure to please the language arts folks, too.
Kirkus Reviews says, "Pattison's text begs to be read aloud and Joven's spreads offer dynamic visuals..."
Come one, come all! The Gingerbread Fair opens soon!
Merry Christmas! Make it be a seaon of connecting with kids over baking fun!
