An adaptation of a favorite childhood classic finds a modernized but naive Red Riding Hood carefully following the path to her sick grandmother's house and telling a crafty wolf exactly how to reach her destination.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 2?Levert's adaptation is straightforward, gentle, and suitable for young listeners who are easily frightened. The strength of the book lies in the whimsical paintings of Little Red Riding Hood, whose dish-shaped face actually appears to fit perfectly on a plate in the wolf's imagination. Touches such as Grandma's cottage-shaped teapot and the hunter's protruding Adam's apple and cap with sticking-out earflaps add gentle humor to the tale. While this version is not as intricate or as rich as Trina Schart Hyman's (Holiday, 1983), the simple illustrations and mild story make it a suitable additional choice.?Donna L.

Review

A drooling wolf, a haggard grandmother, a woodsman whose hat has ear flaps that stick out -- Mireille Levert's adaptation and illustrations of a classic fairytale has assembled a delightful cast of characters for a faithful retelling of a beloved story. Of special appeal to young readers ages 3 to 6, this sprightly version is imbued with rich details and wonderful colors, all wrapped up in a refreshingly simple design. Little Red Riding Hood is an engaging reading experience, and perfect for bedtime reading with mom or dad. -- Midwest Book Review
