First, I'd like to thank Hachette Book Group Canada for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest review! This was a book totally up my street, and I LOVED IT ALL!

I also love how in a way it's all about not judging a book by it's cover when it comes to people... or animals of all kinds.

This is definitely a book you'll want to read to your kids or students, or even get for anyone with kids! Especially in a funny voice, I think kids would love it!

Overall this was an awesome children's story. It played on a classic but with a funny twist, and I loved the ending of the story and how it all came together!

A fun take on the typical Little Red Riding Hood. I'm not sure it would work in a story time, but as a lap read I think it would work. It's quite conceptual, so you might have to talk your way through the story.

A twist on the Little Red Riding Hood tale. The wolf loves books just as much as Lil Red and wants to be read a story.

This is a cute retelling of Little Red Riding Hood but with a twist! A Bookloving Heroine!

Little Red Reading Hood loves books and is quite bright. So as she sets out to take her sick grandmother some treats and encounters a wolf she know what to do because she has read all about it. Only this is not your typical wolf! And what he wants from Red is something unexpected. Someone to read him a bedtime story, and Red might he his only hope.

A bookish heroine sign me up!
Obviously as a booklover I enjoyed this twist on the original story. I think this book would be great for boys or girls. I dont think that kids necessarily need to have read the original version to enjoy this one at all. If they have read the classic then bonus! The illustrations are very cute too.

Thank You to the publisher for sending us this book. Look for this one on July 2nd!

A reimagined version of the Red Riding Hood story centered on the love and value of reading. I really like the addition of book-related details (like the letters and book decorating the hood), but the pictures were a little muddled. Nice addition to a fairy tale / fractured fairy tale story time.

The story started out slow and a bit dull.  Red Reading hood already knew what to do when encountering a wolf, because she read about it.  But when the Wolf asks for a surprise, he doesn't know what to , but aquences to his request.  The ending is what really made this book sing.
