The Gingerbread Boy (A Ladybird Easy Reading Books)(Well-Loved Tales Series, Vol. 606D, No. 7) by Vera Southgate

Despite remembering hardly a thing about this tale now, I think rating it five stars equates to how much I enjoyed this story when I read it countless times as a child.

Reckon 1984 would be the last time I read it, but it's hard to be accurate all these years on.

Recommended to anyone aged in single figures or for grown-ups feeling nostalgic.

The Gingerbread Boy by Vera Southgate

This is a reprinted edition, published to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Ladybird books. A very bright and attractive publication.
