About this ebook

"A perfect blend of spooky and sweet! A great read-aloud experience for both kids and grown-ups alike." ―Pete Oswald, #1 New York Times–bestselling illustrator of The Good Egg and The Bad Seed

Perfect for Halloween, #1 New York Times–bestselling author Dan Gemeinhart's spooky picture book is about a Gingerbread Man creation come to life with a fright—yet even monsters long for a friend. Perfect for fans of Creepy Carrots!, The Gingerbread Man Loose in the School, and Tim Burton.

Includes a recipe at the end to bake your own Gingerbread Monster!

In his laboratory high on the hill, Frank N. Stine has a ferocious sweet tooth that snarls to be fed. But when an eerie experiment spills into his Gingerbread batter, a frightening cookie creation comes to life! The Gingerbread Monster is hulking, horrific . . . and hungry. But as Frank is chased by his creepy creation, the young baker begins to wonder what the Monster truly craves. After all, there’s no sweeter treat than friendship.
