A richly imagined story from the award-winning Chris Riddell, packed full of familiar fairy tale characters as you've never seen them before. Little Green Raincape is on her way to Rapunzel's party, deep in the wild woods. The way is long and dark, but Green is a smart girl. Smart enough to turn down apples offered by kindly old ladies and travel advice from seemingly helpful wolves and, above all, smart enough to solve a wealth of classic fairy tale problems - including mending a lovelorn beast's broken heart. Once Upon a Wild Wood is a wonderfully fantastic story filled with fairy tale favourites, including Red Riding Hood, Thumbelina, Rapunzel, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, the three bears, the seven dwarfs, and many more! A visual feast on every page, illustrated with warmth and humour and full of witty details to discover - this is Chris Riddell at his picture book best!
