In this retelling of a classic fairytale, the big bad wolf is back, all dressed up in Grandma’s nightie but it’s not having quite the effect he was hoping for.

One glorious day the wolf meets Red Riding Hood strolling through the woods. She looks a clever girl, but the wolf knows who is the cleverest. He has a plan to outwit her. But this little girl is not so easily duped. And the wolf finds unexpected hazards in wearing a frilly petticoat in the deep dark woods.

Mario Ramos is one of Belgium’s great children’s writer/illustrators.
