In a cozy little kitchen, an old woman baked a treat. She mixed sugar and spice for something really sweet. In the oven, the dough began to rise and pop. Out came a gingerbread man, ready to hop!

The old woman cheered, 'Oh what a delight!' But the gingerbread man had a plan in sight. He jumped off the tray and yelled, 'Catch me if you can!' Then he dashed out the door, the lively gingerbread man!

The old woman shouted, 'Come back right away!' But he ran through the fields, shouting, 'Not today!' He met a kind farmer with a pitchfork in hand. But the gingerbread man sprinted, quick as he can!

'Stop right there!' called the farmer in surprise. But the gingerbread man dashed off, so clever and wise. He ran past the cows and the horses that neigh. 'You can't catch me! I’m the gingerbread man, hooray!'

Next, he met some playful dogs, barking with glee. 'Stay with us!' they woofed, 'Come and play, you see!' But the gingerbread man laughed and twirled around. 'You’re too slow for me! I can’t stay on the ground!'

Through the woods, he scampered, so lively and spry, leaving behind the animals as they watched him fly. But then he saw a sly fox waiting by the stream. 'Hey, little man, come join me, it's a dream!'

The gingerbread man paused and looked with a frown. 'What do you want? I can’t stick around!' The fox grinned slyly, 'Oh, I won't eat you, my friend. Just hop on my back, and you'll see it's a trend.'

The gingerbread man thought and quickly agreed, believing the fox could help him succeed. But as they crossed the stream, the sly fox turned fast, and with one quick snap, the gingerbread man’s fun was past!
