In Little Evie In The Dark Wood, she excels herself with a simple story that takes Little Red RidingHood as its starting point but moves in an unexpected and beguiling direction. Little Evie, dressed in a red coat, skips over the stile at the end of the path and enters the unchartered territory of the wild wood. She has with her a picnic basket. The animals in the wood all sound a warning, but who is Evie likely to run into and what will happen when she does?
The beautiful text is a perfect foil for Catherine Hyde's illustrations, broad canvasses full of earthy tones that hum with life and colour. A perfect little treat of a book. Read it at bedtime or take with you on a picnic and share in the great outdoors.

It's such a beautiful book, isn't it? and I love the twist to the tale of Red Riding Hood.
It's awesome, Maryom. Such a great twist on the folk tale.
I am going to write a review of it soon on my website..it's gorgeous, isn't it? Words and pictures in perfect harmony!
It's a treat, Adele, and one I can see working in schools really well.
Even the title sounds delicious - in a suspenseful, tickling sort of way. And those illustrations!
I've just read this to my children. What a stunning, touching, deep, beautifully illustrated book. Love it!
Hello I'm so happy sharing this, I still can’t thank you enough powerful Priest Elijah, My husband left for a younger lady because i was unable to give birth due to PCOS,I was so devastated i was lonely i cried a lot i even tried taking my life, Then my friend told me about this great man Priest Elijah who helped her made her marriage perfect, I also went online and did more research about him i was not too sure but i decided to give him a try he told me not to worry everything was going to be alright, He told me all i needed to pay which was a convenient fee and i did and he did his work and sent me video proof and told me to wait 24hrs that he will be back, The next morning to my greatest surprise it was Shawn my husband on his knees begging I'm so happy, It didn’t stop there, I'm proud to say that I'm 3 weeks pregnant thank you so much Priest Elijah I'm forever grateful contact him
