Review

"This lush production is a companion to Schenker’s earlier Hansel and Gretel. . . . The suspense created by the shadowed, partial views of what is to come deepens the menace of innocence pursued by evil. . . . a remarkable example of the book as art." —Publishers Weekly starred review

"A fresh take on a timeless fairy tale . . . . This stunning edition of the favorite fable about a little girl in red on her journey through the woods makes brilliant use of laser die-cut paper and silhouette-like illustrations to enliven every page. Sybille Schenker’s evocative and exquisite illustrations bring a unique beauty and graphic excellence to this beloved favorite." —childrensandteensbookconnection.wordpress.com

"Sybille Schenker’s evocative and exquisite illustrations bring a unique beauty and graphic excellence to this beloved favorite.You may have read 100 different Little Red Riding Hood books, but you’ve not seen one like this before . . . . a keepsake book to be treasured." —smartbooksforsmartkids.com

"An eloquent narrative, stunning artwork, and exquisite bookmaking grace the Grimm Brothers’s classic tale . . . . The clever way that visual effects are used and reused—shifting and redefining mood and meaning—provides an understated yet cinematic reading experience. A lovely addition to fairy and folktale collections." —Joy Fleischacker, School Library Journal
