Louise Rowe



     Fig 1,2,3 (above) Louise Rowe, Little Red Riding Hood (details from book)

I am just two pages away from finishing my 'What has made the wolf's tummy so BIG' book and I thought this morning I would investigate other 'pop up' interpretations of this tale.
Louise Rowe has published this 'wolf friendly' version of 'Little Red Riding Hood' in 2009 as part of a series of fairy tale pop ups including 'Sleeping Beauty' and 'Hansel and Gretel'. It uses very clever paper engineering and lovely integration of surface pattern, for example the leaf skeletons from the forest floor have become the pattern of the floorboards in grandmothers house.
