Little Red is a pencil that needs to write a story and to help her out the teacher gives her a basket with red words in it. This is a story about writing a story and it is also a story that is a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. I have always enjoyed books and stories based on classic fairy-tales and this is a nice spin on it that makes it educational and fun.
This is a must have book for any teachers bookshelf! It doesn’t matter if you are homeschooling or in a traditional school setting, this book can be a fun addition to any classroom curriculum. I cannot wait to give this to my children for Christmas this year! ( )
