Summary: It sho right fo me!
Comment: My kids pick out four stories before bed at night and this one seems to make it into the reading pile every time. The Cajun accent looks tricky at first glance, but like all the other reviewers noted it really does roll off your tongue. We live in Ireland and all the kids here think that the tone of the book is absolutely hilarious...the fabulous illustrations fill in any Cajun-comprehension gaps!

Summary: A Great Fractured Fairy Tale
Comment: As a classroom teacher, I am always looking for new, entertaining books for my class. This book is well-written in the Cajun dialect and exposes children to the Cajun culture while entertaining them with a different version of Little Red Riding Hood. It is best read aloud, and is just as fun for the adult to read as for the child. I would (and have) recommended this book for anyone looking for a new twist to the traditional Little Red Riding Hood story.

Summary: Dat book, it be fonny!
Comment: This book is truly beloved in our household. It's everybody's favorite. If I'm reading it to my kindergartner, my middle-schooler will drift into the room to sit on the bed and listen, even though she's heard it a hundred times. It's a hilarious, affectionate re-telling of the fairy tale, and it's as southern as the Spanish moss and shrimp etouffee, gumbo and gator-filled swamps that sprawl across its pages. Petite Rouge (a duck) turns out to be quite a bit feistier than her traditional fairy-tale counterpart. She stands up to Claude (a gator) and manages to outwit him in a thoroughly southern denouement. The illustrations are warm and expressive and every bit as funny and delightful as the text. A book like this is a gift; enjoy it!
