Description
This pop-out concertina version of the well-known fairy tale is small enough to put in your pocket! Take it out of the slipcase and stretch it out to follow the tale of Red Riding Hood as she travels through the forest to her grandmother's cottage, meeting the Big Bad Wolf on the way. Pops include forest trees and the dramatic moment of the wolf pouncing on Red Riding Hood as he sheds his disguise.
Reviews / Votes
The traditional tale of Little Red Riding Hood is brought to life in a new 3D version. Pocket-Tales: Little Red Riding Hood is the first of a new series for younger readers. The story itself does not differ to the traditional tale, but this is a new way to read it. The pages are in concertina format and fit into a small attractive slipcase; small enough to fit in a young child's pocket or bag. The story is told over the two sides of the concertina and each page has pop ups to further add to the fun, such as the trees in the forest and Granny's house, not to mention the wolf as he leaps from the bed. It also contains the very sensible advice; "Beware of wolves dressed as old ladies, it can only mean trouble". This is an ideal book to keep children entertained on long car journeys due to its compact size. -- Jane Hall * Carousel Magazine *More details
