BR 2-11: The Gingerbread Man

Once upon a time, a little old woman and a little old man lived on farm. they were happily spending their time. However they had no children, it made them sad. The little woman decided to make a boy out of gingerbread. She mixed the dough and cut out a shape, and she gave him eyes, a mouth and buttons and put him in the oven to bake. Soon she could smell hot gingerbread. She opened the oven door and looked in. the gingerbread man jumped out and ran away. The gingerbread man ran out, singing. “Run, run, as fast as you can you can not catch me I am the gingerbread man!!” Running the road gingerbread man met a cow, a horse, farmer, and the children. Then the gingerbread man came to a river. He wanted to cross it, but he could not swim. A fox saw him, and he said to him to take him across. The gingerbread man jumped on his tail, the fox started swimming but his tail was in the water. The gingerbread climbed up the fox. Water started creeping up the fox’s back. The gingerbread climbed the fox’s nose. Then the fox ate the gingerbread a quarter. And again the fox ate the gingerbread a half, and finally the fox ate it all.
This story made me surprised and sad. I wanted the gingerbread to live and he spends time with a little old woman and a little old man.
