Summary: Good ideas but could use photos
Review: Even though this book did not have any photos it was still helpful and gave some good ideas. The author includes drawings of different ideas such as doors, windows, and a mailbox (made out of a tootsie roll). I wanted to make some houses and sell them during the holidays and the author gives some tips on doing this at the end of her book. I borrowed this from the library but now plan to buy it!

Summary: The Gingerbread "Bible"
Review: I have researched many books on gingerbread in search of the "how to's" when I first got started making gingerbread houses. Although this is not a fancy book and has no color photographs, it should be considered the gingerbread "Bible"--a must have for all gingerbread bakers---especially those new to the hobby. It was the MOST helpful book for me when I began--all kinds of practical tips and pointers. I used to just check this book out of our library but finally decided to go ahead and buy it as it is so helpful. Thanks to Christa we are able to do our Mother-Daughter Gingerbread House party every year as part of our family Christmas traditions.

Summary: Missing picture
Review: I wasn't very pleased with this book, very vague and not a lot of pictures.
I have several others that are much better quality. I wouldn't buy it again

Summary: The essential book for first-time gingerbreaders!
Review: I've seen bigger books on making gingerbread houses, I've seen fancier books, but this is the all-time best book yet on the subject. It's simple, clear and loaded with creative ideas. I found this book when I was about to make my first gingerbread house. Now, 20 houses later, it's still my favorite book on the subject.

Summary: The Best for Gingerbread Girls and Boys
Review: This book is clear, descriptive, and explains things simply, but thoroughly. The patterns and photos are especailly helpful, and the projects are charming.

When I decided to make a gingerbread house, I looked at every book on the shelf. I needed all the help I could get! This is the best book out there.

Summary: And on the 7th day there was GINGERBREAD
Review: This book was one of the most helpful books for me when I wanted to do something special for the holidays. You see I'm NOT a cook or a cookie maker by choice. But when I saw Mrs. Curries book it reached out and said "BAKE ME BAKE ME BAKE ME" Her book was very easy to follow and the results were FABULOUS. This is one book for the holidays that I highly recommend to all beginners or professionals. Happy Baking to all and to all a Gingerbread House.

Summary: This is a GREAT book!
Review: This is a good book for adult beginners or experienced gingerbread house builders. The last half of the book is samples and explanations for all the extra details that make the houses special. Mailboxes, snowmen, fences, etc. Lot of fun, but a little advanced for young kids just starting out.
