Little Red Riding Hood (Keepsake Stories) Paperback – August 23, 2001

I bought this to go with the little red riding hood costume; that I wear when I do the storytime tea parties. I love to read children’s books. It’s nice to have a costume of a character that goes to the story that I’m reading. It just worked out where there was a suggestion to buy this book to go with a costume. Very very nice combination.* The artist did a wonderful job in the illustrations of this story. The artwork is beautiful

Great price for 3 books featuring classic children's stories.My husband wanted these books to read to his great grand daughter.They look as nice as the Little Golden Books I had as a child.

I am a preschool teacher and I bought this book as a gift for my 1 year old cousin. The book is best for 2-5 year olds but simple enough for all ages to listen to. What is nice about this version of Little Red Riding Hood is that nobody gets killed. The book also starts with information about how Little Red Riding Hood got her red cape that she wears EVERYWHERE. This makes Little Red Riding Hood a character that most children can relate to. The book is physically a little larger than most and the pages feel thicker and more durable than most paperback picture books. I bought this along with Little Red Riding Hood puppets, it was a great add-on to a fun gift. Giving the puppets and book is great because it encourages interaction between the child and their caregivers. My cousin also has a 3 year old brother, so this is a gift the whole family can enjoy together.I hope my review has helped you make a good purchase for your family or friends.

Bought this based on the reviews and I want to add to them! The pictures are cute and maybe I’m too sensitive to stuff like this but I love how the wolf wasn’t drawn in a way that would scare my 3 year old who specifically asked for this story, haha. The pages are impressively good quality and thick. I like how simple the story was told/worded.I know it’s a classic, but now I see why so many recommend this specific book!

This book was nice to read and the illustrator did a good job as well. Just wasn't my cup of tea.

Looks to be a very nice book, but I am a collector of Little Golden Books.Sorry and thank you for being so understanding, good seller to do business with. Chuck and Kathy Bielarz 👍

This was perfect for my daughter as it’s her favorite story.

I bought this book looking for a way to introduce my daughter to the classic story in a way to her that she would enjoy. I remember reading the story when I was a child, and I pretty much to use my imagination as there were no illustrations. Not only are there wonderful pictures, but the ending is more age-appropriate than the original.For the most part, the book follows the original story pretty closely. However, the author adds in advice here and there to children, such as, " Never Talk to Strangers," and other things you would like your child to remember. The illustrations are wonderful, and keeps kids interested in the story and the lessons behind it.The ending is a lot better in my opinion, as the "Big Bad Wolf" doesn't chomp down and eat anyone. My daughter was only three when I purchased this book, and I was pleasantly surprised to see an alternate ending.The story flows well, and there aren't any boring parts that will leave kids bored. The version I read years ago was a bit more elaborate, but I clearly remember wanting to skip pages and get to the good part. Everything is the "good part" with this book, according to my daughter, who was glued to the book through its entirety.Again, I just can't say enough about the illustrations. Illustrations are an important factor to young children, and each page was filled with beautifully illustrated characters that went along perfectly with the story.There are a ton of "Little Red Riding Hood" books available out there, but this one is one of my favorites. If you are looking for more age-appropriate material for small children, this would be the perfect pick.
