Book Information & Summary
written and illustrated by Yoon Jung Mi
What's it like to get your first pair of glasses? You've thought about what shape and color you want to wear, you've had a fascinating eye check-up, and then you put on your first pair of glasses and your whole world sparkles. On this special day, Little Red Riding Hood is the star of the show. The villainous wolf from the classic tale of Little Red Riding Hood is transformed into a cute little wolf who can't catch a rabbit because of his bad eyesight. Little Red Riding Hood appears as a smart glasses genius and becomes Little Wolf's guide.
Together, they make their way to the optician’s store, and it's a magical journey. An exciting story of glasses unfolds, and the creative imagery is one step ahead of the story. This artistic nonfiction picture book is filled with fun facts about glasses and beautiful illustrations.
If Little Wolf's guide is Little Red Riding Hood, the reader's guide is a beautiful painting. The illustrator was inspired by surrealist artist Magritte's paintings to create a mysterious atmosphere for a picture book that straddles the line between nonfiction and fiction. Every scene is an imaginary scene of Little Red Riding Hood and Little Wolf, decorated based on the content of the text. Novelty illustrations interspersed with silhouettes of glasses invite the reader to solve the riddles and engage the reader's imagination.
This is a picture book that combines literary storytelling, common sense about eyeglasses, and ingenious image-telling.
