The November Library Challenge is to read a book that is a retelling! Read along with us and talk about what you are reading with your kids. When parents read, their kids read too! Here are some recommendations to get you started:
For Kids: I love Ninja Red Riding Hood! The illustrations are fun, the rhyming on point, and the story so cute. When you fall in love with this picture book, you can continue the adventures in The Three Ninja Pigs and Hensel and Gretel: Ninja Chicks.
For Teens: Wolf's Belly is a new graphic novel retelling of Little Red Riding Hood and it is so much fun! There are references to so many other fairy tale characters and it's great to see Little Red take things into her own hands. Heartless is another favorite--the rest of the story of the Queen of Hearts. You'll find yourself rooting for her and hping that the story will end a different way than you know it's going to.
For Adults: There are so many great options out there! Grab Circe if you want a mythological retellling, Pride and Premeditation if you are an Austen fan, or the Snow Child if you want a Russian fairytale retelling perfect for winter.
Happy reading!
