Children's Hour with Red Riding Hood and Other Stories
Watty Piper
Children's Hour with Red Riding Hood and Other Stories is a small collection of five classic fairy tales, edited by Watty Piper and drawn from Grimm's Fairy Tales and English folk tales. It holds Little Red Riding Hood, The Goose-Girl, Babes in the Wood, The Sleeping Beauty, and Snowdrop and Seven Little Dwarfs. Each tale is told in gentle, simple language, with a clear beginning, a danger or a trouble, and a happy or hopeful end.
In Vietnamese this is an easy book to begin with. The sentences are short, the plots are well known, and you can often guess the story before you finish a page. That makes it good for readers who are still learning, because the words about the forest, the castle, animals and family come up again and again. Each story stands on its own, so you can read one in a sitting and stop.
