“Over the course of this book the students dash around town spreading cheer to community helpers… . Lowery’s festive illustrations of cookie and co… are a treat, while Murray’s rhymes are continually surprising and satisfying.“—The Horn Book
“Lowery’s childlike figures playfully fill the panels with friendly faces, while the bouncy rhythm,
particularly the recurring refrain that riffs on the classic ‘You can’t catch me. I’m the Gingerbread Man!’ will make read-alouds a treat.“—Booklist
