Little Red Riding Hood

(3) 4-6 Translated by Anthea Bell. Illustrated by Sybille Schenker. The gothic cutout lettering and the hand-sewn binding signal that this is a special retelling of the familiar story. In Bell's excellent translation, the girl is called Little Red Cap; Schenker uses intricate die-cut pages to reveal the action and heavy black contour lines that are reminiscent of woodcuts. This gorgeous (but delicate and expensive) volume will intrigue sophisticated readers, young and old.
