Full-page drawings unfold one after another in this captivating, picture-book, tangibly carrying the lively, childlike style of artist Yukari Miyagi. This visual interpretation of Charles Perrault's Little Red Riding Hood, written over 300 years ago, is a unique and refreshing take on the well-loved fairy tale.
Tokyo based Yukari Miyagi (1965) is a prolific and talented freelance illustrator, with a very elegant and distinctive, almost child-like style. In the last few years Miyagi's dreamy illustrations became a constant presence in Japanese magazines, books as well as international publications.
