Little Red Riding Hood / Caperucita Roja

Candice Ransom’s retelling feels both familiar and fresh—what inspired her to stick close to the original while adding her own touch?

Little Red Riding Hood faces her fears in this version, making me wonder if the author intended to inspire confidence in young readers.

There are so many versions of this story, but this one had a particular moment that made me think about childhood innocence and caution.
