In her second adventure, no sooner does the Gingerbread Girl greet her new animal cracker friends than they're "off to explore!" Catchy rhyme introduces each character as the story progresses toward its climax: the crackers run into a fox. Luckily, the Gingerbread Girl comes to their rescue, bringing a happy ending to the tale. Gingham backgrounds tone down the pictures of stampeding cookies.
