Reviews
PreSchool-Grade 2?Levert's adaptation is straightforward, gentle, and suitable for young listeners who are easily frightened. The strength of the book lies in the whimsical paintings of Little Red Riding Hood, whose dish-shaped face actually appears to fit perfectly on a plate in the wolf's imagination. Touches such as Grandma's cottage-shaped teapot and the hunter's protruding Adam's apple and cap with sticking-out earflaps add gentle humor to the tale. While this version is not as intricate or as rich as Trina Schart Hyman's (Holiday, 1983), the simple illustrations and mild story make it a suitable additional choice.?Donna L.
