Critics Review
Praise for The Gingerbread Man: Buttons on the Loose:
“Murray’s rhyming text lends itself well to a read-aloud but will also hold solo readers’ attention. Lowery’s artwork uses an effective combination of full-page images and paneled scenes… No doubt fans of the picture books starring this edible detective will enjoy this tale.” –Kirkus Reviews
“It’s winning times two in this breezy summation of the frustration and triumph surrounding a beloved lost object, embodied by one smart cookie who’s also cute as a button.” –Publishers Weekly
Praise for The Gingerbread Man: Class Pet on the Loose:
“Delectable… Cartoon panels give the book a scene-by-scene flow, which especially works well for a clue-based pet hunt … Children reading on their own will have a blast, and caregivers and children alike will enjoy sharing it as well.” –Kirkus Reviews
