Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When Shirley bakes herself a gingerbread treat to bring to school, the last thing she expects is for him to leap out of her lunchbox and begin gobbling everything in sight. A wild chase ensues--on foot and by cable car--through iconic San Francisco neighborhoods including the Mission, Chinatown, North Beach, and Fisherman's Wharf. Will Shirley be able to catch the gingerbread boy before he eats up the whole city? Friendship is at the heart of this retelling of the classic folktale. A recipe for (non-magical) gingerbread treats is included.
Ages 4-8.
When Shirley's gingerbread treat leaps out of her lunchbox and begins gobbling everything in sight, a wild chase ensues through the neighborhoods of San Francisco as Shirley tries to stop her creation from eating up the whole town.
