Little red riding hood trina hyman7/1/2023 ![]() ![]() It is a good lesson that not everything is what it seems. Everybody loves the little girl who wears a red-hooded cloak, but no one more than her grandmother. The nature of the story and illustrations has some dark parts so I would read this with elementary students with caution. ![]() ![]() In a twist, another wolf came back and the grandma was able to trick it and it drowned. Her favorite story as a child was Little Red Riding Hood, and she. A man came and saved them by cutting open the wolf. Schart, she grew up in Wyncote, Pennsylvania and learned to read and draw at an early age. The wolf went and ate her grandmother and he ate little red riding hood as well when she got to the house. Little red riding hood got manipulated into wandering off the path where she was supposed to stay on while bringing her grandmother cake and wine, and that is when the wolf intervened and tricked her into going off the path to get flowers for her grandmother as well. The message of the book is that you should always listen to those you trust and don't be misguided by strangers' manipulative nature if you were to come across someone like that. The story itself was well-written and there is a bit of a twist at the end that we don't see in the tale that most kids read growing up, especially since it is a Grimm tale. ![]() The illustrations really make the story what it is and come to life. Since this was a Caldecott honor book, it is no surprise the illustrations are beautiful. ![]()
