"Inventive.hilarious.Lehman fills the spreads with information and diversion: there are hidden sheep to find, nursery rhyme characters to identify.and a nursery rhyme newspaper on the endpapers to read. Yet there's no excess busy-ness--the Caldecott Honoree's clean, clear lines offer a sense of structured calm." -- Publishers Weekly, STARRED review "Inventive.Lehman offers entrancing details for keen-eyed viewers to notice.Another triumph from a master of wordless picture books.


" -- Horn Book, STARRED review "This gentle, humorous take on Little Red Riding Hood incorporates numerous references to nursery rhymes, folktales, and fairy tales.Endpapers drawn to look like a newspaper, along with a map on the back cover, foreshadow Little Red's route and alert readers to the many literary references to be found along the way. Comic-style illustrations employ a mix of panel sizes to keep the narrative moving. While the story itself is wordless, signs on the businesses and nursery rhyme excerpts in the back matter provide an additional layer of humor to the framework of Little Red's journey." -- Booklist "An indulgence for Mother Goose die-hards." -- Kirkus.
