Description

One glorious day the wolf meets Red Riding Hood strolling through the woods. She looks a clever girl, but the wolf knows who is the cleverest. He has a plan to outwit her. But this little girl is not so easily duped. And the wolf finds unexpected hazards in wearing a frilly petticoat in the deep dark woods.

Critic Reviews

-- Publishers Weekly

"The Big Bad Wolf really gets his comeuppance in this delightful and fresh retelling, a worthy addition to the fractured fairy tale canon."

-- Booklist, starred review

"ideal for readers who are beginning to interpret texts and who can enjoy and understand the concept of an anti-fairy tale."

-- The Children's Book Council of Australia
