About this title

Synopsis

A rebus version of the fairy tale about the little girl who meets a hungry wolf in the forest, in which pictures are substituted for some words or parts of words.

From School Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 2 The emphasis is on puzzle- solving in this mild retelling of a favor ite story. Based on the German, this simplified version has the wolf devour ing Grandma and Red, who are resur rected by a passing woodcutter. But this wolf doesn't lure Red away from the straight and narrow in the woods; instead, she dilly-dallies along the path, on her own. Naturally, the form imposes some limitations of content and mood on the telling, and the re buses do make for a jerky cadence, but they are fun to play with. Their meaning is generally clear from the pictures themselves or from the con text, and the story's familiarity helps too. If meaning still eludes, a rebus dictionary in the back of the book pre sents the pictures and their meanings in their order of appearance in the sto ry. The colors are clear and bright, both in the rebus pictures and in the larger illustrations, and composition and design give the pages a light, open feeling in keeping with the playful con cept. Full of psychological undertones it isn't; but it is fun, cheerful, and well-executed. Karen Litton, Con federation Centre Public Library, Charlottetown, P.E.I., Canada
