Lon Po Po Red Riding Hood Story from China Ed Young.

A haunting Chinese rendition of the classic tale of "Little Red Riding Hood" follows the adventures of young Shang, Tao, and Paotze.  The three sisters staying home alone are endangered by a hungry wolf who is disguised as their grandmother.  Their mother is away visiting their grandmother for her birthday.  So the three sisters need to defend themselves against the wolf!  Great story for students to compare to the European version of Little Red Riding Hood.  A favorite in the classroom.

Reviewer: Retired Teacher from Los Angeles, ca  
The cover is a bit scary looking and at first put me off.  Then I read it was an award winner and bought it for my grand daughter.  I can see why it's an award winner and so popular with teachers.  It's fun to have your child/students compare the traditional red riding hood story with Lon Po Po.  Very well done illustrations and story.

Reviewer: Ray Ritchey from Rowland Heights, CA United States  
I loved it!  In some ways, this story makes more sense than the European Red Riding Hood.  Excellent book.
