This spectacular reimagining of one of Grimm’s most beloved cautionary tales is brought to life by Caldecott Medal-winning artist Jerry Pinkney.

In this inspired rendering of the classic Grimm Brothers folktale, Caldecott Medal-winning artist Jerry Pinkney introduces 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 as the clever wolf himself–are sure to lure you into the heart of this treasured tale.
