Summary: This picture book is a modern take of Little Red Riding Hood, but here, the wolf takes the form of a city. Red’s mother asks her to go visit Grandma bringing her a cake. On her way, she walks through the city, and she finds herself swallowed up by all the temptations in the city. This story is about the many distractions we meet in life and challenges the readers to stick to one’s original intentions. Hence, this book can initiate conversations about making decisions and how to handle unexpected temptations.
