Red Riding Hood and the Sweet Little Wolf
by
Rachael Mortimer
Illustrated by Liz Pichon
Sweet Little Wolf’s big, bad parents are at their wits’ end. When will their daughter start acting like a real wolf instead of loving all things pretty and pink and listening to fairy tales?
In desperation, they send her out to find a juicy little girl for dinner but, although she tries her very best to be fierce, her resolve dissolves when she discovers Grandma’s fluffy, pink dressing gown and Red Riding Hood starts to read fairy tales.
Liz Pichon's bright, expressive illustrations complement an original and humorous alternative-telling of a traditional fairy story which also conveys a message about unconditional love and how important it is to be true to oneself.
