Red Riding Hood

In a land of fairy tales, the forest holds all kinds of dangers for curious little children.
On the way to her grandmother's house, a little girl meets the big, bad wolf. Despite her mother's instruction not to talk to strangers, Little Red Riding Hood makes a very dangerous mistake and soon the forest becomes a dark and mysterious place, where even her grandmother's smile is sinister.
Told in verse, Lydia Louisa Anna Very brings new life and wonder to the classic children's fairy tale. Fans of fairy tales and families alike will fall under the spell of this enchanting return to the world of Little Red Riding Hood.
Lydia Louisa Anna Very (1823-1901) was an American writer, poet, teacher, and illustrator. She was a prolific poet and translator but is best remembered for writing the first shaped books in America: books printed in the shape of people or animals.
Her work includes the children’s fairy tale ´Red Riding Hood´, and Daniel Defoe’s classic ´Robinson Crusoe´, written in verse.
