Barry Hutchison Little Red

Annotation

Little Red is on a mission to deliver supplies to the best cake-research facility in the galaxy. After she lands, it seems that everyone is acting strangely. Can she find out what's wrong before it's too late? This series is based around famous fairy tales, but not in the form the reader might expect. These tales have been tweaked to enchant and amuse a modern audience, including a princess who prefers frogs to princes, an intergalactic Red Riding Hood, Goldilocks the vandal, a ragtag band of characters forming a superhero league and more. The balanced combination of low word count with imaginative plots ensures that reluctant readers are stimulated and drawn in to stories that they can realistically comprehend, providing much needed confidence going forwards.
