In this inspired rendering of the classic Grimm Brothers folktale, five-time Caldecott Honor winning artist Jerry Pinkney introduced two favorite children's characters to a new generation: the sly, scary wolf and the sweet little girl in her famous red hood. Readers will squeal with delight all over again during that most memorable scene when Little Red Riding Hood declares, "Oh, Grandmamma, what great teeth you have!"Pinkney's charming, masterfully-wrought illustrations--as warm and cozy as LIttle Red's cloak and as captivating ast he clever wold himself--are sure to lure you into the heart of this treasured tale.

I love Jerry Pinkney illustrations and even have a special separate place on my shelf for his books. We don't own this one, but I borrowed it from the library. It's the traditional story I know well with a multicultural flare in vivid imagery. I'm bit unsure if this one is one to buy for our shelf as it's not my favorite of his, but I fully intend to share out again with my children over the years. Tonight I read it to all four to the request of the 6 and 3 year old.
