The "Gingerbread Man" and the "Gingerbread Boy" were two fairy tales which are quite different yet somewhat alike. They both were baked by an old lady, yet the purposes for making them were different. In the first story, the Gingerbread Man was made for the grandchildren. However the Gingerbread Boy was made to be a son to the old lady.
The two srories are the same however there are many differences such as, in the story "The Gingerbread Man" he was made for the old ladies grandchildren; however in the story "The Gingerbread Boy" he was made to be a son to the old lady. The Gingerbread Man had brown sugar for the coat, pink sugar for the mouth, rasins for the buttons and the eyes, and a ball of dough for his nose; on the other hand the Gingerbread Boy the cloves were for his buttons, and his eyes were peppercorns. In the story "The Gingerbread Man" there was raced; however in the story "The Gingerbread Boy" he had only talked to the horse. In the fairy tale "The Gingerbread Man" there wasn't a pig, and the animals chased him one at a time ; on the other hand in the fairy tale " The Gingerbread Boy" there was a pig, and the animals chase him all at once.
The simularities in the stories were that the Gingerbread Man and the Gingerbread Boy were both made by an old lady, and they also both got tricked by a fox but the fox thought that he would be able to eat them. Both strories have an old man in it. Both stories have poetryin it. Both of them ran away from the animals. They both returned home and had a happy ending.
