Little Red, the Detective: a science folktale by Lois WickstromMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Little Red gets a call from her Grandma to come for a visit. Grandma is making a new sweater and needs to make sure it's going to fit properly. Grandma requests that Little Red pick up a certain flower to bring to her for making tea. Little Red has a book that will help her identify the proper flower. Along the way to Grandma's, Little Red comes across a wolf who tricks her with some flowers. These flowers are not in Little Red's book so she keeps looking while the wolf pays Grandma a visit.
I found this book to be cute. I even laughed out loud at one point. This book might not be for super young readers though as they may find the wolf too scary. I like how the focus is on using a book to identify different types of flowers. Grandma also uses those flowers to make tea. This is a great book for encouraging nature walks, flower identification, and using natural resources in ways that might not have been thought of otherwise.
