Reviews for The Gingerbread Man: Paper Airplanes on the Loose: A Graphic Novel

“Ideal for comics newcomers . . . followers of the series will be happy to see a new installment.” –Kirkus Reviews 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
