A good story can change. InThe Girl in Red, acclaimed illustrator Roberto Innocenti offers a modern take on the centuries-old tale of an ailing grandmother, a wicked wolf, and a young girl in a red coat. Innocenti's brilliantly detailed illustrations present a city as a wilderness, while text by Aaron Frisch narrates the journey of a girl named Sophia through the twists and turns of a stormy day.
Aaron Frisch is an editor and author whose picture books-published by Creative Editions-have received an IPPY Award Gold Medal, a Spur Award, and a finalist nomination for the Minnesota Book Awards.
Roberto Innocenti, a self-taught artist, has earned worldwide acclaim with such illustrated books asRose Blanche andThe Adventures of Pinocchio. In 2008, he received the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Award.
