About This Item
Lydia Very (1823-1901), sister of Transcendentalist poet Jones Very, both designed and wrote the verse which tells the story. Red Riding Hood's adventure is turned into a morality tale in which the little girl disobeys her mother. After her encounter with her would-be devourer, Red Riding Hood "said the fright had taught her/To mind her mother dear." McClinton, Katharine M., THE CHROMOLITHOGRAPHS OF LOUIS PRANG, pp. 45-46 (RED RIDING HOOD pictured at page 46).
