A Pop-Up Shadow Story
Little Red Riding Hood Eve Robertson • Illustrated by Ana Jimenez
Read it under the bedclothes if you dare! We all know the story of the little girl in a red cloak who strays from the forest path in pursuit of a butterfly. Ana Jimenez’s illustrations are a delight in this beautifully inventive pop-up version, which brings the tale to life, revealing who might be watching and waiting behind the scenes. Turn a torch on the shapes and be amazed by the shadows they create! Is that just the trees in the forest, or is it the big, bad wolf lurking? Bedtime reading has never been so magical – all you need is a torch.
