Welcome to Litsy!

“Your grandmother has caught a cold, good children. and it is dark and windy out here. Quickly open up. and let your Po Po come in.“ the cunning wolf said.“

This book gave me goosebumps when reading this because of how suspenseful this is. I think that this is a great book for higher grade levels such as fourth and fifth grade.

This is a version of the tale of Red-riding Hood that originated in China. The illustrator used dark red and black to set some ominous tones to create some suspense while reading the story.

To all the wolves of the world
for lending their good name
as a tangible symbol
for darkness

This book is a take on the typical fantasy of red riding hood. Great for all ages.

This story is a different take on the traditional Red riding hood story. however what draws me so close to the book is the same reason it has a Caldecott award. the art in this is much darker than typical for a children's book.

“On the day of their grandmother's birthday, the good mother set off to see her, leaving the three children at home.“

This would be a good book for older elementary students

I love this book for a couple reasons. One, it's another red-riding hood story. Two, it's in China so it's promoting diversity in the classroom.

“Not only did the wolf bump his head, but he broke his heart to pieces”

I really enjoyed how the plot was focused on the children in the house and not the grandmother in this tale

Lon Po Po by Ed Young, 1989. Traditional Literature. I really love this spin on Red Riding Hood. This book does a great job in capturing and displaying Chinese culture through telling this classic tale. The book replaces red with three girls waiting at home for their mother. The author tells how the three girls trick the wolf by adding Chinese nature such as ginkgo nuts!

“then they climbed down, went into the house, closed the door, locked the door with a latch and fell peacefully asleep.”

the artwork in the book is amazing. also, it has a scary vibe to it, scarier than the normal red riding hood!

This story is a version of red riding hood from China. It was an interesting, mysterious folktale to read. The illustrations were also mysterious, with dull, dark shades of colors. The story shows you 3 girls as they go through a conflict of trust.

UDL 8.3 could be used by having students work together to compare the original with this version or to perform a readers' theater.

Lon Po Po is a TL picture book by Ed Young. This book has won the Caldecott Medal. Lon Po Po is an adaption off of Little Red Riding Hood. It takes a very dark turn and I believe may be to morbid to read in a young classroom. The book tells the story of 3 sisters who come face to face with a wolf after not following their mother's instructions. I would use this book as a S or RA in an older classroom.

Translated and illustrated by Ed Young, Lon Po Po is a Chinese telling of Red Riding Hood that won a Caldecott medal for its illustrations. The twist on the story being, Little Red, are actually 3 little girls, and they do not travel through the woods. The wolf takes his opportunity when he sees there mother leave, and pretends to be Po Po, the girls‘ grandmother. This TL would be great for a S. #ucflae3414su19

This TL book comes all the way from China and it won the Caldecott award! It provides a spin to the traditional red riding hood story we grew up with because instead of a big bad wolf there‘s a big bad tiger trying to eat 3 children but the children catch on and outsmart the Tiger. This would be a good book for a RT. Students can act like a tiger and the 3 kids, this story includes a lot of dialog, so students will have the chance to act out the

#WanderingJune Day 3: Not just one #ChinaGirl, but three! Fats‘ review: “In this red-riding hood story from China, we see a reversal of roles between the cunning Lon Po Po and the more astute Shang. Both were tricksters but Shang‘s goodness prevailed. This, I think, is the one thing that both versions agree upon: the big bad wolf gets defeated in the end.” Her review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-LE

“Lon Po Po” is a TL picture book written and illustrated by Ed Young; the teacher should RA this beautiful Caldecott Award-winning book with a combination of other TL from around the world.
