Turner, Tracey and Summer Macon. Red Riding Hood and the Three Billy Goats Gruff. Kane Miler, 2022. 978-1-68464-311-0. Unpaged. $12.99. Grades PreK-2. 

Red Riding Hood and the Three Billy Goats Gruff is a mashup of both of those fairy tales and takes the reader on a funny but adorable journey, combining aspects of both of those fairy tales. As the reader goes through the story, seeing elements of both fairy tales found within the illustrations is a fun side journey to take. There are elements of the original fairy tale found in each story, and the author keeps certain aspects the same. The troll from the Three Billy Goats Gruff is found in Grandma’s bed, just how the wolf would have been.

THOUGHTS: Overall, this is a fun and enjoyable read aloud that will have readers asking for more.
