The one that didn't bother little red riding hood - By: , 01 Dec 2004 
I read this to my eight year old over the course of a week, & he loved it. We have magic, curses, children trying to right injustices in the face of overwelming odds & suspense by the bucket loads. It's well written & the narrative keeps moving along at a pace to keep early readers interested.

A superior modern fairy tale - By: , 20 May 1999 Mary Stewart is well known as a writer of fiction for grown-ups, the Merlin books are probably her most widely read work. 'A Walk in Wolf Wood' is one of two books that she has written for children, the other being 'The Little Broomstick.'
'A Walk in Wolf Wood' is a haunting fairy tale. By turns of mystery & enchantment Mary Stewart casts an utterly compelling spell... I last read this many years ago & its effect still lingers on. I have always rated it as one of my favourite children's stories: right up with 'The Hobbit,' 'Tom's Midnight Garden,' & 'The Lion, the Witch, & the Wardrobe.' It has a stylistic affinity with the Narnia books, certainly.
I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Please get it in stock!
