Little Red, the Detective (Science Folktales) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Megan Conley

Little Red, the Detective: a science folktale by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Love this twist on Little Red Riding Hood. I always appreciate how Wickstrom is able to weave learning and storytelling together into one. This is the tale of Little Red and how she is able to thwart the wolf who eats Granny (don’t worry…Granny survives). Little Red uses scientific methods her Granny has taught her to prove that the wolf isn’t Granny and then she’s able to use the wolf’s own nefarious ways against him to get her Granny back. The illustrations are, as always, beautiful.
