 Easy to Read January 15, 2005

This was easy for my four-year-old to read because she knows the story and it was easy for her to anticipate what the wolf was going to say and what Little Red Riding Hood was going to say. She likes the repetition and the familiarity; however, the ending left a lot to be desired. She was like, "Well, if you're not supposed to talk to strangers, then what about the woodcutter? Did she know him from before, or is he a stranger, too?" Then she asked me a million questions about why the grandmother wasn't covered with blood when the woodcutter chopped open the wolf.
I think that the illustrations in this book are only mediocre. Little Red Riding Hood herself is pretty cute, but I think Emily Bolam could have tried a little harder. The wolf is not a compelling character at all.

Zeifert proves once again that she is the premiere author for the first grade set. The words and sentences have a later first grade readability. The story is the original one that we have been accustomed to, even to the point of the wolf eating Little Red herself. She comes out OK in the end. I read it to my daughter and she loved it. As a licensed literacy specialist, I review books for this age group and highly recommend it.
