Red Riding Hood Meets the Three Bears

(4) K-3 Fairy Tale Mix-Ups series. Illustrated by Karl West. Little Red Riding Hood goes to the wrong cottage and finds the three bears, while Goldilocks wanders into Grandmother's house. Puss in Boots needs a shoemaker to fix up his old boots. Neither folktale "mix-up" is very clever, though both illustrators introduce diversity in the cartoonish portrayals. Background information on each book's two source tales and writing prompts are appended. Reading list. Glos. Review covers the following Fairy Tale Mix-Ups titles: Red Riding Hood Meets the Three Bears and The Elves Help Puss in Boots.
