Caperucita Roja

‘Caperucita Roja’ card game published by H. Fournier, 1981. Many versions of the Little Red Riding Hood folk tale have been told, all with the same basic plot. This version has grandma cautioning the little girl not to talk to strangers. However, she meets with a hungry wolf (predator) while she is picking flowers. The sinister episode helps children to grow emotionally, by allowing them to come to terms with fears that are part of growing up. But all ends well when a rabbit alerts a woodcutter who arrives in the nick of time, so there is a happy ending for bedtime.

The artist’s name is not known.
