PS
The lonely couple who lost their Gingerbread Boy to the wily fox tries again, this time fashioning a girl. And off she goes, her red licorice hair ablaze on the oversize pages, chanting a variant of her brother's mantra. While Ernst's happy ending may be too sweet for tradition to bear, this Gingerbread Girl, to quote the fox, is one cute cookie.
