Little Red: A Rebel Fairytale

Product Information

You guys are such a force for good and I am a passionate supporter of Indie booksellers, so I'm so happy this worked out well (I'd love to know how many books were sold if you have it to hand - it felt like quite a lot! I have even talked the head into a little revamp of the library so that we can display them properly! Seeing Bethan herself reading 'Little Red' to a group of enchanted, enthralled and enthused children was amazing in itself. In this defiant interpretation of the traditional tale, the cheeky, brave little girl seizes control of her own story (and the wolf gets rather more than he bargained for).

These heroines do not need to wait around for woodcutters and princes, but can makes themselves masters - mistresses, rather - of their own destiny.

Thereafter, the bold black lined images, the hulking shapes and clever perspectives delight and entertain us.
