I have a lot of students who request stories about the gingerbread man. I also have a lot who love ninja books so I thought this would be a great combination. This version starts with Sensi following a recipe for ninjabread. Once the cookie is done it escapes the oven and runs loose. Ninjabread man runs into several other students of the sensi’s and tests them. Will he be able to outsmart them all?
