Staff Review: "Red Riding Hood, Superhero" by Otis Frampton

There's something universally fun about twisted fairy tales, and Otis Frampton takes full advantage of this as he goes hog-wild with the story of Red Riding Hood in his new graphic novel, "Red Riding Hood, Superhero." After an encounter with an alien, Ruby Topper is left with a super-power enhanced red cape. When Professor Cornelius Grimm creates the Big Bad Wolf-Bot to kidnap Ruby’s Grandma, the President of the United States, Ruby dons her cape to become Red Riding Hood, Superhero! With silly twists galore, your young reader will be delighted to discover this unique take on an old tale. For second to fourth grade readers.
