Story of Gingerbread Man

Once upon a time, there was a little old woman and a little old man and they lived in a little old cottage. The little old woman loved to bake, and one day she decided to make a gingerbread man and put him in the oven to cook.

When the gingerbread man was crisp and brown, the little old woman opened the oven door. Out jumped the gingerbread man, who ran away, chanting,

“Run, run as fast as you can! You can’t catch me. I’m the Gingerbread Man!“

The little old woman ran, but the Gingerbread Man ran faster.

As the Gingerbread Man ran down the hill, he met a duck who said,

“Quack, quack! You smell delicious! Stop, little Gingerbread Man! I would like to eat you!“

But the little Gingerbread Man ran on, singing,

“Run, run as fast as you can! You can’t catch me. I’m the Gingerbread Man!“

The duck quickly waddled after him, but the Gingerbread Man ran faster.

When the Gingerbread Man ran through the golden fields, he met a pig cutting straw. The pig said,

“Oink, oink! You smell delicious! Stop, little Gingerbread Man! I would like to eat you!“

But the little Gingerbread Man ran on, singing,

“Run, run as fast as you can! You can’t catch me. I’m the Gingerbread Man!“

The pig ran after him, but the Gingerbread Man ran faster.

In the cool shade of the forest he met a lamb. When the lamb saw the Gingerbread Man, she said,

“Baa, baa! You smell delicious! Stop, little Gingerbread Man! I would like to eat you!“

But the little Gingerbread Man ran on, singing,

“Run, run as fast as you can! You can’t catch me. I’m the Gingerbread Man!“

The lamb leapt after him, but the little Gingerbread Man ran faster.

Up ahead, the Gingerbread Man came to a river. Next to the river, he spied a fox lying on the bank. The sly fox grinned and said,

“Wait, Gingerbread Man. I’m your friend! Climb up onto my back so you won’t get wet!“

The Gingerbread Man hopped onto the fox’s back. After a few more strokes, the fox said,

“Gingerbread Man, the water is getting even deeper. Hop up onto on my head!“ “Ha, ha!“

laughed the Gingerbread Man,

“They’ll NEVER get me now!“

“You’re right!“

shrieked the fox, and he threw back his head and ate the Gingerbread Man up.

The little old woman walked back home and decided to bake a cake, instead.
