We are sure that everybody knows the fairy tale of Little Red Riding Hood and that parents tell this story to their children. We have given this classic fairy tale in an unconventional design. Every illustration has been specially embroidered for the purposes of the book; the cover is coated with coloured cloth and finished with a plastic embroidery of Little Red Riding Hood. We like to think we have given the well-known story a new dimension, and we do hope that children will like it, too.
