LITTLE RED - Softcover

Little Red is on his way to visit his grandmother on the other side of the wood when, ignoring all warnings, he strays from the path. Stealing the little boy's red coat, the greedy wolf hatches an evil plan and hurries to the cottage to gobble up shortsighted grandmother. Little Red is next on the menu, but can a keg of delicious sparkling ginger beer save him from a gruesome end? From the fabulously quirky 'Ye Olde Belch' Inn to the scary spookiness of grandmother's cottage, this witty reworking of the classic tale is perfectly adapted to 18th-century England and is bursting with period detail.

Lynn Roberts has worked with children's literature for many years - both as a specialist in book shops and as a writer. Cinderella (1843650134) was her first picture book, and she says, "When someone bought it for the first time, I had a smile to myself. But I didn't let on...". She is also the author of "Rapunzel" (184458156X). Lynn lives in Liverpool. David Roberts and his sister Lynn Roberts were born in Liverpool. David studied fashion before moving to Hong Kong to work as a fashion illustrator. He has illustrated numerous books, and was runner-up for the pretigious Mother Goose Award for children's illustration. David now lives and works in London where, when not drawing, he likes to make hats.
