A fairy tale by Charles Perrault about a young girl and a Big Bad Wolf with modern illustrations. Classic translation by Robert Samber. Raconte l’histoire d’une petite fille qui traverse la forêt pour apporter un morceau de galette, une bouteille de vin à sa grand-mère. En chemin, la fillette fait la rencontre d’un loup, qui la piège à la fin et la dévore elle et sa grand-mère.

I understand why this was a cautionary tale about young girls and creepy old men.

This is the classic story of Little Red Riding Hood, the version where the grandmother does not get eaten. This version is set apart by two main factors. First it is on the Kindle. As a family we are moving away from paper books, and it is nice to get some good classic children's books. The second is the design of the story. The pictures are bright graphics, which kept the attention of my children. As well the formatting of the text was not awkward, a problem with several other Kindle children's books we have read. The writing is good, but not brilliant. There could be a few more pages added to the conclusion. Her father just happening to be close by when she screamed is too easy, and not how I remembered the story. Overall this book was a great find.

“I say “wolf,” but there are various kinds of wolves. There are also those who are charming, quiet, polite, unassuming, complacent, and sweet, who pursue young women at home and in the streets. And unfortunately, it is these gentle wolves who are the most dangerous ones of all."
