Look at me.<br>Would I LIE to you?<br>It was the old woman who started it. <p/>Everyone knows there are at least two sides to every story, and if you believe in the big-eared, sharp-toothed villain of <i>Little Red Riding Hood</i>, there's a logical explanation for everything. As our antihero tells it, it all starts with the helpful wolf doing odd jobs for Grandma (are you sure you don't want to sit a little closer?). How was he to know that he spoiled Little Red would come along and ruin a good working relationship? Zooming in dramatically from strategic angles, the amusing illustrations offer visual clues that this is a story to be taken with a grain of salt -- and a lot of giggling.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Toby Forward</b> is the author of many books for children, including <i>Shakespeare's Globe</i>.
