In this New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, girl power abounds as Little Red unravels the big bad wolf's plan. They would also only drop off a case of books and leave us to run it – it was so lovely to have you on hand to chat to the children and recommend them books, as well as the small (but appreciated! This experience has been fantastic primarily for the children, the school and also for me (professionally). I haven't charted out my visits for the summer term, but I'm sure there are several in the south) and thanks so much for being so fantastic!

It was a startlingly confident debut which she followed with an equally striking and feminist take on Rapunzel , with not a handsome prince in sight.

Lovely book that is wonderfully illustrated and teaches a good moral re girls standing up for themselves. My 3 year old daughter absolutely adores this story, so much so that we have to read it three times (me, my husband and daughter all have a turn) before bedtime. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. In this defiant interpretation of the traditional tale, the cheeky, brave little girl seizes control of her own story (and the wolf gets rather more than he bargained for). What’s more, he’s eaten Grandma, and then disguised himself, badly, with her ‘ glasses and spare nightdress‘.

You guys are such a force for good and I am a passionate supporter of Indie booksellers, so I'm so happy this worked out well (I'd love to know how many books were sold if you have it to hand - it felt like quite a lot! I won't spoil the ending but let's just say Little Red wraps it up nicely (and warmly) and it has my three year old son thrilled at every read, begging for more. Bethan Woollvin won the Macmillan Prize for Illustration in 2014 for Little Red – her classy, bold interpretation of Little Red Riding Hood .A witty twist on a favourite fairy tale, Little Red was chosen as one of The New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Books 2016. With a touch of humour and a pinch of subversion, I like to tell empowering stories inspired by history, folklore, and the world around me.

Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example. Yesterday a parent came over to tell me how impressed she was by the book fair and that you did a fabulous job of selling the books to the children first. Thereafter, she sees the ‘ badly disguised waiting in Grandma’s bed‘ when she peeps through the window. Thoughtfully written by someone who clearly understands how children think and feel and what they look for. However, the wolf makes plans immediately to cut a shortcut to the Riding Hood house and thereafter eats Grandmother.A autora fez um excelente trabalho com a repaginação da trama e um trabalho incrível com suas ilustrações, SUPER RECOMENDO!
