If You Go Down to the Woods Today

Publisher Thierry Magnier
Category Children's Books
Age 0-3
Inspired by the folktale Little Red Riding Hood, this book with a strong environmental message raises awareness of the destruction of our forests.

A girl with a red cape walking through the woods… Everyone knows that story, don't they? But what if it's other human beings she has to watch out for, and not a wolf?
Now the girl, riding a wolf, is chasing some lumberjacks who have come to cut down the trees! The original tale has been tweaked to accompany Pauline Kalioujny’s pen-and-ink drawings. Her enchanting black-and-white illustrations, full of inventiveness and fun detail, plunge readers into a forest full of life and activity, where bears, rabbits, and woodland creatures are busy fleeing loggers' chainsaws.
