From School Library Journal:
Kindergarten-Grade 3?The subtitle tells readers that this is not the traditional "Little Red Riding Hood." Here, our heroine wears a hooded red jacket while bike riding. Knowing Grandma "gets crabby in the heat," she decides to take her muffins and lemonade. Along the way, she meets the wolf, who, of course, decides to race Little Red to Grandma's house. Instead of the expected frail, bedridden old woman, he finds a feisty, muffin-baking, tractor-driving grandmother who puts that big bad wolf in his place. Once reformed, he becomes Grandma's baking assistant. (The muffin recipe is included.) Little Red learns her lesson about talking to strangers. Readers will delight in the comical tale and unpredictable plot twists. Ernst's now familiar large colorful line-and-wash paintings featuring cartoon characters are a perfect complement to the playful story. The spirited illustrations and rollicking narrative make this an ideal read-aloud choice.?Heide Piehler, Shorewood Public Library, WI
