About this Book
This retelling of Little Red Riding Hood is set in Ghana and follows Pretty Salma, a young girl who ventures out to the market wearing her grandmother’s special red scarf. Along the way, she encounters Mr. Dog, who tricks her into revealing her belongings and her destination. Rooted in African culture, the story incorporates traditional Ghanaian elements and includes a glossary of words such as ntama (wrap-around skirt) and atumpan (talking drum). Niki Daly’s vibrant illustrations bring the bustling West African setting to life while carrying an important message about listening to Granny’s wisdom and the dangers of talking to strangers.
Hardcover. Very good condition overall with clean pages and bright illustrations. Was a previous library book. Minor shelf wear to cover edges (see photos).
