Publisher's summary

A smart, snappy, bilingual retelling of "Little Red Riding Hood"

Winner of a Pura Belpre Honor for Illustration 

While Roja picks flowers on the way to her grandma's, a mean wolf sneaks away with her cape to surprise Abuelita. But Grandma's no fool, and Roja's no ordinary chica. They send that hungry lobo packing with a caliente surprise! 

This spirited retelling of "Little Red Riding Hood" has accessible Spanish rhymes and hip cultural details throughout.
