Review Quotes
"Toddler-PreS--Cut pages retell the traditional tale, including cutting the wolf's belly open (although he lives) in a visually engaging manner. When the wolf eats grandmother his open mouth fills most of the page with very sharp teeth. VERDICT Interesting design and dramatic storytelling." --John Scott, School Library Journal
"The classic tale of Little Red is brought to life in a new way with shaped edges and a multidimensional format. And the book still fits in the palm of your hand! The pages grow with the story, which adds to the building tension, and the narrative does not skip out on any details. A great way to introduce youngsters to fairy tales!" --Rachel Feeck, YA Books Central
