{"product_id":"little-red-riding-hood-9781567925890","title":"Little Red Riding Hood","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe story of Little Red Riding Hood reset in rural New England of the early nineteenth century.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Into the forbidding but beautiful New England winter steps a resourceful farm girl in her scarlet cloak, bound with her basket of presents for her ailing grandmother. Told in a folksy cadence, the tale ends happily, as Little Red's father comes to the rescue (sharp-eyed children will notice a calico cat helped, too ). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Loving detail fills each illustration in this unique version. Andrea Wisnewski based her interiors, architecture, and costumes on models found at Old Sturbridge Village, the living-history museum in western Massachusetts. The images, full of period detail, are done in a medium Wisnewski has made her own: black-and-white prints made from intricate papercut designs (the results look much like woodcuts) that are then hand painted in gloriously vivid watercolor. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This is a beautiful, totally original, reimagining of the German fairytale classic and, yes, Little Red does survive the ravenous wolf--moist but intact. A wonderful version of the classic tale, perfect as a read-aloud, a picture book to share.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWisnewski, Andrea:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrea Wisnewski\u003c\/b\u003e is a designer, printmaker, author, and illustrator who works in a distinctive paper-cut print style.
