Description : Gingerbread Man
*After a daring escape from the oven, the Gingerbread Man is chased by a little boy, an old man and woman, a group of farmers, a bear and a wolf -- and he outruns them all!! But will the clever fox outsmart the quick cookie?

The Little Red Hen
*The Little Red Hen works hard -- all alone -- to turn her wheat seed into flour, while the goose gossips, the dog naps, and the cat preens. But when her lazy friends smell the fresh bread baking, they're eager to help her eat it! In this easy-to-read rendition, even the youngest listeners will enjoy the classic folktale about hard work and its tasty reward.

The Velveteen Rabbit
*Given as a Christmas gift to a young boy, the Velveteen Rabbit lives in the nursery with all the other toys, waiting for the day when the boy will choose the wisest resident of the nursery, who reveals the goal of all nursery toys to be made "real" through the love of a human.
