The main message of the story is you may be able to run fast,but you can out whit everyone in the end you will face the person you are running from and have to face your fear.

In my opinion this is a well-organized book. There are a couple reasons I liked this book.
First the author tells the story from first person point of view. This brings the main character, the gingerbread man, alive. The gingerbread man tells of how fast he is and how the characters can’t catch him because he’s the gingerbread man.
The author also uses repetitive language as each of the characters see the gingerbread man and yell “Stop! Stop!” but the gingerbread man only laughs and calls out, “Run, run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man!” Until he reaches the river’s edge and must decide whether to trust the fox who said, “I don’t like gingerbread” or he can take a chance on getting eaten by the little old woman, the little old man, the gentle brown cow, and the big brown bear. He ends up trusting the fox and in the end the fox gobbled him up.
