Very Little Red Riding Hood
A fabulously funny fairytale romp with an utterly fearless, totally beguiling, very determined and very little heroine.
Very Little Red Riding Hood is little. Very little. She's brave and bossy, fearless and determined, loving and funny. And like all toddlers she likes everything just so – woe betide anyone and anything that gets in her way!
Join Very Little Red Riding Hood on a very important expedition to her Grandmama's for a sleepover.
She's got some cakes, she's got red ted, she's got her blanket and she's got her tea set. And NOTHING is going to get in the way of her well-laid plans. Not even a Wolf!
Will they all live happily ever after?
Find out in Very Little Red Riding Hood's very big adventure.

About the authors
This is Little Red Riding Hood for the modern age...a great story that will find fans of old and young alike.
The School Librarian
This quirky take on the original is fabulous – and sure to become a bedtime delight.
The Sun
Delightful…switches on a nightlight to bleach out the darkness of the Grimms’ version. Heapy allows the little girl to speak like a real child and Heap gives her the sort of coat with animal ears that wouldn’t look out of place in the local park…A perfect present for a Gramma to give her VLRRH.
The Times
A delightful twist in the tale… warm illustrations… a delight to share.
The Bookseller - Bookseller's Choice
Very funny…a feisty little heroine
Blackbird Pie
A gorgeous take on the original, which perfectly captures the voice and fears of young toddlers and contains a delightful twist at the end.
Elli Woollard, Guardian
Just delightful. Wonderfully original, funny and sweet.
Nick Sharratt
‘Very Little Red Riding Hood contains one of the most perfect representations of toddler habits I’ve read in a picture book and I’m so excited that it’s the first in a series… This isn’t just my choice for the list, (my daughter) adores this story.

Get your hands on this sweetly funny variation of the traditional story. With her toddler talk and winning smile, Very Little Red Riding Hood is an absolute charmer. …this first time collaboration between Heapy and Heap is a whole heap of fun.

In constant demand, eliciting hoots of laughter with every read through, but more than that - lots of really cute and hilariously funny scenes unfold as you read, and it's the perfect book to appeal to quite a broad age range

The whole book is such fun with lots to look at in the funny and sweet illustrations. The best thing, of course, is that when you’ve read it, you can read it all over again – on demand, I am certain.
