(3) K-3 Illustrated by Insu Lee. In this China-set adaptation of "Little Red Riding Hood," two squabbling sisters home alone disagree about whether to admit someone claiming to be their aunt--in actuality, a hungry tiger in disguise. The sibling rivalry angle adds dimension to the familiar tale, swiftly told by Yep. The illustrations ably juxtapose a slick, contemporary-looking style with a traditional Chinese setting.
