Welcome to Litsy!

Includes little red riding hoods journey and her scary encounters

Grandmother, what big eyes you have!“ “The better to see you with, my dear.“ “Grandmother, what big ears you have!“ “The better to hear you with, my dear.“ “Grandmother, what big teeth you have!“ “The better to eat you with!“ This dialogue is one of the most iconic moments in the story, highlighting the tension as Little Red Riding Hood slowly realizes something is wrong.

I would use this book in my classroom to compare and contrast different versions of stories.

Little Red Riding Hood was published in 1983 and is a story of traditional literature. A young girl is sent by her mother to visit her sick grandmother. Along the way, she meets a wolf. The wolf tricks Little Red Riding Hood into telling him where her grandmother lives. He suggests that she take a longer path while he heads to the grandmother‘s house. The wolf arrives at the grandmother‘s house, eats her, and disguises himself in her clothing.

This retelling of Little Red Riding Hood by Trina Schart Hyman combines the classic tale with beautiful illustrations. By combining not only illustrations of the story but also of things such as quilt squares and flowers on each page set. This creates an almost homey feel that adds to the overall comfort of the story.

This retelling of little red riding hood uses classic details within its artwork. Using Borders to create scenes within the images. The borders contain both artwork and the words of the story. The colors on each page portray some of the emotions that may be happening or relate to the colors within the scene.

“I‘m sure that grandmother would feel happier if I took her a bunch of flowers. They are a sight for tired, old eyes, I know“

“Oh grandmother! Your eyes are so shiny!”
“Better to see you with my dear”
I love this page of quotes, its classic and witty and a essential part of the storyline!

I have always loved this story, its one of the very first story‘s I remember being read to. It will forever remain a classic. I also love the illustrations as-well, cottage-core and homey!

This classic story of Little Red Riding Hood won the Caldecott Medal. Retold and illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman. Her journey through the woods to her grandmothers house. When the wolf is pretending to be her grandmother. The wolf swallowed the grandmother and little red riding hood whole! The huntsman opened him up to get them out. Then they were all happy, besides the wolf of course!

I loved the tale of Little Red Riding Hood! It‘s a classic story and I think every child should know it. I think it‘s a great story to read to any future classroom to tell warn them about stranger dangers.

Little Red Riding Hood, winner of the Caldecott award, was a great book! It was the classic tale of Little Red Riding Hood, and how the wolf tries to trick the little girl and how the little girl doesn‘t let it phase her!

“She was comforted, though, that she had at least minded her manners.”

“She had no idea what a wicked animal he was, however, so she was not at all frightened of him”

I have always loved this story. It is a classic that has always made its way back into my literacy journey. The retelling in this version adds interesting twists and the illustrations help guide the experience.

This Caldecott Award winning retelling of a classic story by the Brothers Grimm is an excellent read. The story follows a little girl named Elizabeth, but also know as Little Red Riding Hood, as she journeys through the woods to deliver bread and wine to her grandmother. Along the way she encounters a hungry old wolf who makes her journey frightening.

1. Yes and no. I generally impulse choose my next read. Whether it's been banned wouldn't make a difference.
2. Forever by Judy Bloom was forbidden fruit. I read that in 5th or 6th grade early 80s
3. The tagged book is in my library. I read the Grimm's version Little Red Cap almost every year. I can't believe how many books in my collection have been challenged somewhere.

A timeless classic and Caldecott Honor TL, Little Red Riding Hood by Trina Schart Hyman. Most children know this fairy tale about a young girl in red hood who travels through the woods to see her grandmother, expect something just doesn‘t seem right about her poor old grandmother, she seems to resemble a... wolf! With some twists and turns students will be at the edge of their seat to see what happens next. Perfect for S. #ucflae3414su20

Little Red Riding Hood is a Caldecott award-winning book retold and illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman. The genre is TL as this book tells the classic fairy tale about Little Red Riding Hood and her encounters with the Big Bad Wolf. This book would be best told as a dramatic reenactment (DR). This would be fun for the students and would aid them in comprehending the story.

Another classic book that really can benefit a classroom and keep students engaged! This book is folktale/ fiction picture book and is a Caldecott and golden kite winner. I would use a dramatic reenactment for this book because it‘s a tale most people know of all ready and is easy to reenact using the students in your classroom to engage them!

This is a TL book retold by Trina Schart Hyman and it‘s about a little girl on her way to deliver a basket of food to her shock grandmother, but encounters a sly wolf. This book would be great for DR and won the Caldecott award. https://www.amazon.com/Little-Red-Riding-Hood/dp/B01KI3ZRTM the UDL principal 1.2 offer alternatives for auditory information and EL 14 simplify your speech by making it slower and refund goes well with the audio book i

I like how the story has the overly themes of stranger danger and obeying parents, because it is a crucial thing to teach children. The book represents cultural norms that have evolved through the years where children need to be more aware of their safety.

I would read this in my classroom, because it is a classic story that supplies a very important message to children creatively.

You know, my dear, it isn't safe for a little girl to walk through these woods alone.

“Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Elizabeth“ I never knew Little Red Riding Hood's name was Elizabeth!

I think I would read this book to my students because the pages have a lot of text on them, and I think reading to them with expression would keep them more engaged as oppose to reading it on their own.

“Little Red Riding Hood“ by Trina Schart Hyman, 1983. Traditional Literature. I love the story of Little Red Riding Hood! This version of the story relays the same story to the original. The illustrations really add to the story and are very interesting to look at.

📖🕯🌌

This TL book by Trina Hyman is a caldecott winning book. It is great for classrooms of all ages, I would use this book as a RA.

“When you have had a nice visit come straight home”

I would read this book to a 3rd grade class. This one is a little more complex for younger students. A 3rd grade class would be able to interested in this book and be able to pay attention to it.

This book is traditional literature. This is a classic book. It‘s a great story and very entertaining for kids. It‘s a good book for all kids. This book keeps the original tradition of the story. It uses the same way that the story was originally written.

“She thought to herself I‘m never going to wander off the forest path again.”

The illustrations were spot on for this story.

Little red riding hood by Trina Hyman in my opinion is not a children‘s book. I did not like how the wolf ate the grandmother and little red riding hood. Also how the huntsman cut open the wolf to get them both out I don‘t think is very appropriate for children. I thought it was a good book just appropriate for 4th grade and up.

In this book, the huntsman took care of the wolf... that‘s different than others.

#RedRoseSeptember Day 24: In this version of the classic fairytale, little Red named Elizabeth brought her grandmother a loaf of fresh bread (not cake) and butter to go with it – but there‘s still the wine – because that‘s the best #remedy for a sick grandma, apparently. The more I look at Hyman‘s art, the more I fall in love with it – her playing with light and shadows and textures. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-bgt
