This edition of "The Story of Little Red Riding Hood" by the Brothers Grimm, beautifully illustrated by a Caldecott Honor-winning artist, brings the classic cautionary tale to life. A young girl, wearing her iconic red cape, sets off through the forest to deliver food to her ailing grandmother. Along the way, she encounters a charming but cunning wolf who tricks her, leading to a suspenseful confrontation at her grandmother's house. The Grimm's version includes a woodsman who ultimately rescues both Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother, providing a resolution to the peril. It's a foundational story for discussing stranger danger, obedience, and the consequences of distraction.
A little girl meets a wolf in the forest on her way to visit her grandmother.
