What Kind of Book is Little Red Riding Hood
Reviews
This is a beautiful version of a classic tale. There are many rich details in the text fleshing out the story so that Red Riding Hood could be a real little girl, with personality, like someone you might meet. The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous!--full page, every page, and rich with color. When my daughter moves away and takes her copy with her, I will need a new one of my own.

The Creatives Behind the Book
Trina Schart Hyman, a great admirer of the Brothers Grimm, has wanted to retell and illustrate Little Red Riding Hood ever since she was a little girl. She has illustrated other Grimms’ tales, including Snow White, translated by Paul Heins: Sleeping Beauty; and Rapunzel, retold by Barbara Rogasky.
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were born in 1785 and 1786 near Frankfurt, Germany. Their collections of folk and fairy tales have stood the test of time and still influence literature today.
