The good woman, her mother, made the child a little hood of scarlet flannel. Wherever she went she wore it; and the folks called her \"Little Red Riding Hood\u003c\/i\u003e.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTold with Beatrix Potter's trademark forthright narration and wry observations, this unique take on the popular tale is sure to become as popular as her original stories. Award-winning illustrator Helen Oxenbury's illustrations complement the original text with moments of beauty, tension, and humor. | Beatrix Potter was born on July 28, 1866 at No 2, Bolton Gardens, Kensington, London. She loved nature and drawing as a child. In 1893, Beatrix sat down to write a picture letter to Noel Moore, the five-year-old son of her ex-governess, all about a naughty rabbit called Peter. Noel was ill in bed and so Beatrix wrote to him: \"My dear Noel, I don't know what to write to you, so I shall tell you a story about four little rabbits....\" And that's how \u003ci\u003eThe Tale of Peter Rabbit\u003c\/i\u003e was created. It wasn't until 1902 that Frederick Warne published what would become one of the most beloved stories in children's books.","brand":"Warne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46302249943269,"sku":"NP9780241375341","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780241375341.jpg?v=1767735553","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/red-riding-hood-isbn-9780241375341","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
