In this series, it seems that they have taken traditional fairy tales with human characters and substituted animals.  For me, personally, Little Red Riding Duck doesn’t seem to work.  One reason is that the large size of the wolf and the small size of the duck doesn’t make it as believable because, of course, when duck comes to gramma’s house the wolf is way too big to be mistaken for gramma.  Also, duck waddles out yelling, but wouldn’t you expect the wolf to be able to catch her easily.  The beaver, the woodcutter, is even smaller, but is still able to fend off the wolf.  For these reasons, it doesn’t work for me.  I would only read this version to preschoolers whom I don’t want to frighten.  Any older children would question the story.
