Hand puppets tell the story of a lonesome couple who want children. The wife decides to make some gingerbread and makes it in the shape of a little boy. When she takes him out of the oven he comes to life. The gingerbread boy runs away from his new home and meets a worker in the field who tries to catch him. The Gingerbread boy meets a wolf, who offers to let him ride on his back across the stream. The little boy sits first on the wolf's tail, then on his back, and finally on his head. The wolf quickly eats the Gingerbread boy.
