You guys were so fab and Dawn was such a lovely presence in the schools - I will absolutely be in touch next time I'm in your neck of the woods. A unique interpretation of the classic fairytale, shot through with dark humour and a stunning, bold graphic style. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Yourself and Bob are much cherished in our booky world and I personally really appreciate everything that you do. But thats where things take a turn for the better, this Little Red Riding Hood has a plan of her very own and the wolf had better watch out!

This experience has been fantastic primarily for the children, the school and also for me (professionally). The wolf is hungry, and Red Riding Hood looks tasty, so he hatches a dastardly plan, gobbles up Grandma and lies in wait.You guys are such a force for good and I am a passionate supporter of Indie booksellers, so I'm so happy this worked out well (I'd love to know how many books were sold if you have it to hand - it felt like quite a lot! With a touch of humour and a pinch of subversion, I like to tell empowering stories inspired by history, folklore, and the world around me. A witty twist on a favourite fairy tale, Little Red was chosen as one of The New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Books 2016. In this New York Times Best Illustrated Children's Book, girl power abounds as Little Red unravels the big bad wolf's plan.

In this defiant interpretation of the traditional tale, the cheeky, brave little girl seizes control of her own story (and the wolf gets rather more than he bargained for). Your selection was perfect for our children and what really made the difference was your ability to engage with each child, discuss their interests and help them to choose a suitable book based on your extensive knowledge of the books you were selling.Bethan Woollvin’s defiant interpretations of the traditional tales are perfectly matched by her bold and visually arresting illustrations, painted in Pantone colours. It’s a fantastic independent book seller that will actually be responsive and select appropriate books for you. Thereafter, she sees the ‘ badly disguised waiting in Grandma’s bed‘ when she peeps through the window.

A fantastic twist on the original, wonderfully written, with brilliant, bold illustrations by Bethan Woollvin, this was her first children’s book, created whilst she was still studying at Cambridge School of Art and has gone on to win several awards including the Macmillan Prize for Illustration.There was just the right amount of choice to suit everyone without being overwhelming and I received comments from parents and staff about the quality of books offered compared to previous sales which have always been based around current crazes and well known celebrity authors.

The eldest in a family of ten children, Bethan understands well what appeals to a variety of age groups, and all her work exudes a natural dry wit and charm. Bronnie is so lovely with the boys and we also felt that having a man enthusing about the books set a great example. The wolf is hungry, and Red Riding Hood looks tasty, so he hatches a dastard ly plan, gobbles up Grandma and lies in wait. The brilliant, limited colour palette, express use of black lines, the various shapes and perspectives all work to form a really satisfying picture book.Yesterday a parent came over to tell me how impressed she was by the book fair and that you did a fabulous job of selling the books to the children first. Printed using rich pantone colours, the graphic illustrations in Little Red offer a bold, visually arresting interpretation of the classic story by Bethan Woollvin, the winner of The Macmillan Prize for Illustration 2014. It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I really appreciated how smoothly and professionally you ran everything.
