Little Red Riding Hood

Countless generations have listened in awe to the tale of the little girl in the red hood who goes to visit her ailing grandmother only to find an unwelcome surprise. Now Caldecott winner Beni Montresor gives us his own stunning interpretation of this classic story. Using the original tale by Charles Perrault, he gives us a unique and startling visual retelling of Red RIding Hood and her unfortunate encounter with sly master wolf. Enhanced by elegant, provocative, and at times chilling illustrations, Mr. Montresor's depiction is boldly imaginative. As opera luminary Luciano Pavarotti says in his introduction, this enchanting version "will leave you breathless."
