Description

"Once upon a time, there was a little girl who lived with her mother in a house on the edge of a village..." Everyone loves the little girl who wears a red-hooded cloak, but no one more than her grandmother.One day, Grandmother gets sick, and Little Red Riding Hood sets out to visit her, carrying a basket of food as a present.In this faithful retelling of the Grimms' version, Trina Schart Hyman magnificently illustrates the child's journey through a forest and her scary encounter along the way with a sly, hungry wolf. Trina Schart Hyman is a great admirer of the Brothers Grimm, and has wanted to retell and illustrate 'Little Red Riding Hood' ever since she was a little girl. She has illustrated other Grimms' tales, including 'Snow White' (1974), translated by Paul Heins; 'Sleeping Beauty' (1971); and 'Rapunzel' (1982), retold by Barbara Rogasky.Caldecott Medal Nominee (1984)Age Rating: 2–6+ / Preschool - 3+ / Lexile Score 870Edition MSRP: N/A (ISBN 0-8234-0470-6)Printed in the United States of America
