Terrible

The wolf compares the females to apples the whole time and insinuates that they were rotten for finding themselves pretty. Red is described as rotten because she admires her appearance, not because she actually does bad things.
In conversation with other works of Red Ridinghood literature, which have historically been warning narratives regarding sexuality, this book feels like a perpetrator victim blaming.
As a story in its own right, it is boring and takes no novel approach to the story.
At least the narrator did a great reading.
