Not-So-Little Red Riding Hood by Michael Rosen and David Melling - ADVISABLE

Not-So-Little Red Riding Hood by Michael Rosen, illustrated by David Melling. PICTURE BOOK. HarperCollins, 2023. $13. 9780008509934

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

APPEALS TO: MANY

Little Red Riding Hood is riding her pony  through the forest to grandmother's house.  She is older and more confident this time as she travels through the woods.  But then she sees some ears behind a bush.  It is the big bad wolf?

Rosen has created a new, cute, and funny take on this classic story.  It's not very scary as no actual wolf ever shows up. I liked Melling's comical storybook illustrations.
