SleepyTimeVoice: Bedtime Stories To Help You Sleep - Little Red Riding Hood as told by Katherine Pyle

Richard

A European fairy tale about a young girl and a Big Bad Wolf. Its origins can be traced back to the 17th century to several European folk tales, including one from Italy called The False Grandmother. The two best known versions were written by Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm.

For this fully family friendly version of the tale we turn to author Katherine Pyle, an American artist, poet, and children's writer, sister of author and artist Howard Pyle. 

Pyle told this version in Mother’s Nursery Tales, a collection of stories she published in 1918. Something we will be coming back to again for other classic nursery tales.
