FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Galdone, Paul

The Gingerbread Boy

(2) K-3 Folk Tale Classic series. These two books from the 1970s appear in a uniform paper-over-board edition. Galdone was a refreshingly modest illustrator: his retellings are straightforward and his unassumingly loose-lined, color-separated pictures provide just enough embellishment. Plenty of white space gives the stories all the room they need. Review covers these Folk Tale Classic titles: The Gingerbread Boy and The Three Billy Goats Gruff.
