Little Red: A Fizzingly Funny Fairy Tale
Description
Little Red is the story of a boy, a grandmother, a big bad wolf, and a keg of delicious fizzy ginger beer. Young Thomas is known as Little Red. He lives with his parents in a cosy inn, famous for its sweet and fizzy ginger beer. Every week, Little Red visits his grandmother with food and a keg of the ginger beer. But on this visit, grandma doesn’t quite look herself. Can Little Red save Grandma, and himself, from the big bad wolf – perhaps with the help of a certain fizzy beverage?This highly imaginative spin on the classic tale is set in the late eighteenth century – a time of big wigs, satin gowns, beauty spots, powdered faces and wicked highwaymen!

"The frightening, red forest scenes on the endpapers will be devilishly alluring to young readers who like just a little scare with their somewhat silly and comfortingly well-known tales." —School Library Journal
