Abstract ONCE UPON A TIME, there was a young girl called Little Yellow Riding Hood. Or maybe it was Red? Little Red Riding Hood? Grandpa keeps mixing things up. But what fun it is! Not only does his granddaughter get to correct him, but in the process they create a really great story, too! Telling Stories Wrong, written by Gianni Rodari, widely considered the father of modern Italian children's literature, is illustrated here with great affection by artist Beatrice Alemagna, who counts Rodari as one of her "spiritual fathers." --- Back of book.
