"A fun and enjoyable tale with striking illustrations... The bright, warm illustrations by Scebold bring depth and movement that take the tale to the next level, integrating with the text through speech bubbles inspired by graphic novels... Fox's rhythmic baking mantra is cute and simple and could be used to create a call-and-response between storyteller and audience in a read-aloud situation... This story is an engaging addition to the genre of runaway gingerbread fairy tales that has been popular for almost 150 years." -- Kirkus Reviews
