A Lovely Chinese Fairy Tale

Date of Review:  Oct 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: This wonderful picture book has suspense and striking drawings. Even though it's a variation of Red Riding Hood, it has some big differences.
Review: On the cover, a dark wolf stands against a sunset orange background. The outline of his body is not sharply drawn, but his form is clear. His head is turned toward the reader. He stares with stark white eyes, as if the illustrator forgot to draw...

A Chinese Red-Riding Hood Story

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2003
The Bottom Line: Wonderful illustrations about a folk tale from China that children will relate with especially if they are familiar with the American version.
Review: The cover of this book caught my attention. A wolf with bright white eyes stares at you. And that is only the start, as the striking artwork continues throughout the story, and even won this book the Caldecott Medal in 1990.
