"Lon Po Po: A Red-Riding Hood Story from China" is a beautifully illustrated retelling of the classic Little Red Riding Hood tale, set in a Chinese cultural context. In this story, three sisters—Shang, Tao, and Paotze—are left home alone while their mother goes to visit their grandmother. A cunning wolf disguises himself as their grandmother and tricks the sisters into letting him into the house. Using their wit and courage, the sisters outsmart the wolf in a thrilling climax, emphasizing themes of bravery, family, and cleverness, while showcasing rich Chinese folklore.
