A childess woman bakes herself a gingerbread boy but when she opens the oven he escapes out of the house and down the street. The old woman runs after him as he cries, Run, run as fast as you can, youll never catch me Im the Gingerbread Man. Several animals join the chase as the Gingerbread man looks good enough to eat, but none can catch him. Soon the Gingerbread Man comes to river which he cannot cross alone. A sly old fox offers to take him across and the Gingerbread Man climbs onto his tail, but as they cross the river the fox persuades him to jump onto his nose to avoid getting wet.
