Little Red and the Very Hungry Lion
Alex T. Smith, Alex T. Smith
Little Red sets off to visit her auntie who is poorly. She walks under the giraffes, over the sleepy crocodiles, past the enormous elephants and the chattering monkeys. Then a Very Hungry Lion approaches Little Red, wanting to gobble her up. But despite all the cunning plans by Lion, Little Red outsmarts him and soon has him saying sorry and eating doughnuts instead. A classic fairy tale with a twist by the bestselling Alex T. Smith.
Reviews

My most favourite story! I love the lions clever plan but he doesn’t fool Little Red. This story makes me laugh lots. I got it as a library book and would love to find a copy of my own.

I liked this book, it was funny. I liked that little made him look silly and made the lion brush hus teeth. I also liked the ending when he was tempted to eat her dad and little Red said bad kitty!

This was like little red riding hood but it wasn’t. The lion had a clever plan but I didn’t think it was very clever. I liked when little red made the lions hairs all in ponytails. He looked so funny. All the lion needed to do was ask for food. Not try to eat Aunty rose and little red. Silly lion.

This book was like little red riding hood.

I really like it because Little Red tries to make the lion good by spoiling his plans and changing his outfit and making his hair different. I also liked how he was trying to eat her daddy at the end. My favourite character was Little Red because I liked how she went through the jungle and met some new animal friends. I would recommend it.

I liked it because it was interesting and it’s a bit like the story little red riding hood because the wolf and the lion, they both dress up as a granny / auntie and try to eat a little girl called red.

When little red tied the lion's hair up it looked like a firework - it was very funny! It was like Little Red Riding Hood in the jungle.

The little girl is going to get eaten by the lion. I like the little girl because she was very brave.

I thought that it was a good book ,but it was not my favourite book that I have read so far. It was fiction. My favourite character was little red. I would recommend it.

It was pretty funny. Little red was favourite character because she wasn't scared and taught the lion a lesson! And I mean a lesson!

It was funny and cheeky.
Principal Blueberry Cuckoo-Clock 30.08.2020

Little Red is smart and teaches this Lion a thing or two. I like it when Little Red has to cross the termites mounds, meerkats and over crocodile backs!
