A little old woman makes a ginger-bread man and names him 'Brownie'. Brownie wants to live with someone who is brown like him, not white skinned and pink cheeked like the little old woman and the little old man. Brownie finds the grey cat, the black and white dog, the black cow before he discovers the brown hen and chickens, who invite him to live with them. The brown chickens quickly gobble him up.
