The Gingerbread Man Loose in the School by Laura Murray (Illustrated by Mike Lowery), 2011.
This picture book is a 2014 Nominee of Illinois' Monarch Award. The winner of this award is voted on by students in Illinois in grades K to 3.
This book really is perfect for kids in kindergarten. The children listening to this book read aloud need to have the context of being in school to really get the excitement of being lost in the school - and getting into the principal's office! This illustrations are almost in graphic novel format, so that each page contains visuals for each line, sentence, or action. It is definitely one I would take school visiting for kindergarten and perhaps first grade. It takes the read through a myriad of emotions while also being rather silly at times, and it has a good ending.
(I am not in any way connected with the Monarch Award and nor am I being paid to review this book. I checked this book out from the local public library!)
