Gingerbread Baby by Jan Brett
3.0
I love Jan Brett but there is some real funny business going on in this story.
Why do Matti's parents leave him home alone with the oven on? That's a terrible idea.
Then Matti is USING the oven! How old is this kid?!
He's reading a recipe for a gingerbread boy but somehow magically creates an entire gingerbread house, decorated and all, in the same amount of time.
The gingerbread baby is drawn to the scent of the gingerbread house. Uhhhh... cannibal baby?
