Illustrated by
Mike Lowery.
In his sixth school-set adventure, the gingerbread man, and the class of schoolchildren who baked him, learns about flight. The students make paper airplanes, and the gingerbread man rescues a plane that gets stuck in a tree. The entertaining rhyming story introduces a few principles of math, science, and teamwork. The layout incorporates some elements of a graphic novel, and the illustrations have a lively cartoonish vibe.
