Featuring a new foreword by Caldecott Medalist Jason Chin, this
beloved fairytale is now available in a handsomely produced 40th
anniversary edition.
"Everything in this book is vital and alive. Open it up and drink it
in." --Jason Chin, illustrator of Caldecott-winning book Watercress
When it was first published 40 years ago, Trina Schart Hyman's retelling
of Little Red Riding Hood created a sensation for its cozily detailed,
romantic, and mysterious illustrations of one of childhood's most
popular stories. Since then, this Caldecott Honor book has become one of
the best-loved editions of the tale, delighting generations with its
wonderfully alive paintings.
Jason Chin shares a heartfelt tribute to his mentor, Trina Schart Hyman,
and her artistic legacy. Newly designed endpapers, foil stamped cover,
and debossed case reminiscent of the original cloth cover makes this a
treasured gift to share.
