A retelling of the familiar folk tale of the gingerbread man, prepared for young readers by Priyangwada Perera and published in English by M. D. Gunasena & Co. The text is accompanied by illustrations, and the book forms part of the publisher's series of fairy tales retold for children.
The appeal of these stories is that they are already half-known. A child meeting the gingerbread man here is meeting a figure that has been passed between generations, set down in a version shaped for reading aloud and for early independent reading alike. It suits a bedside shelf, a classroom corner, or a gift for a child beginning to follow a story on the page.
M. D. Gunasena is an established Sri Lankan publisher producing books in Sinhala and English, with a long-standing list for schools and young readers. This title belongs to that children's list, and sits alongside the other fairy tales issued in the same series.
