Chris Gall.
In this amusing "Little Red Riding Hood" takeoff peopled by vehicles of all kinds, scooter Little Red tangles with a monster truck who has just devoured Granny Putt Putt. Because Red knows the neighborhood streets (his "riding 'hood") so well, he manages to vanquish the truck. Bold illustrations give the characters plenty of personality, while playful vehicle-related language adds to the humor.
