(4) K-3 Illustrated by Nicoletta Ceccoli. In this version, the wolf eats both the child and grandmother, the two are rescued by a woodcutter, they sew stones in the wolf's belly (the girl's idea), and the wolf dies. The somewhat lengthy retelling is illustrated with handsome stylized paintings that convey the tale's disquiet but not the degree of violence described in the text.
