Teacher Lisa Eve and the Gingerbread Girl

You may have heard from your children
about acting in a play about the Gingerbread Girl...

•   PreK Actors: Crab (Julian), Seal (Maddie), Whale (Molly, Mielle), Octopus (Amin, Jian, Clara, Henry, Molly) Baker (Matthew, Holden) and the Gingerbread Girls ( Leah, Amanda)
  
  
   (Here is a little more information)

  Teacher Lisa Eve had a great time writing the story of The Gingerbread Girl. When her mom and sister came to her with the idea, she was thrilled to participate. 

  Teacher Lisa Eve’s mom, Linda, was always enthralled with children's story books and had hoped to one day illustrate a book of her own. Working with two of her grown children, this endeavor became a fun family project with each of them adding the ingredients to make a memorable children's classic.

  Teacher Lisa Eve’s sister, Deana, has been teaching for 15 years, ranging from kindergarten to third grade.  The idea for The Gingerbread Girl book came to Deana while she was reading to her then first grade daughter, Abbi, who was being her animated self during the story. Her twirling actions gave Deana the inspiration to say:

  "Run, Run, Run - watch me twirl.
  You can't catch me, I'm the
  Gingerbread Girl."

  Deana had fun helping to develop The Gingerbread Girl series in a format that could be enjoyed by children and adults alike. She has created the Activity Booklets to accompany each story with questions, games, memory activities and more.
