It’s Little Red Riding Hood revisited. It’s not a parody. I love this story, it has such infinite richness. As in “The Highway Code”, the story is my starting point for ridiculing the wolf. It’s so enjoyable to make fun of the Big Bad Wolf.

“Little Red Riding Hood”, like most folk tales, was part of oral tradition.
Perrault was the first to put it into writing, in 1697. The Grimm Brothers’ version, which is milder, dates from 1813. This text maintains all its symbolic force and its mystery, despite the passage of time.

The idea for the book came to me from Gustave Doré’s etching, where the wolf in a nightgown and Little Red Riding Hood are in bed together, a disturbing image which we all know. Outside the bed, however, the wolf’s disguise is rather funny.

Since “I am So Strong”, the meeting with the Seven Dwarfs is inevitable; it allows me to draw attention to these poor little men who work far too much for a miserable salary. In this book, they finally take hold of their destiny and decide to take a break to make the most of a nice sunny day.

Hunter’s page (and following pages): have fun looking for the glasses.
