Cute way to look at parts of a story

A cute addition to our Little Red Riding Hood unit study, this did a cute job of showing off different parts of a story/book and some parts of speech (the red pencil throws nouns for example), while keeping some elements of the original story. My daughter had fun finding the things that were almost the same (basket of nouns instead of treats, principal Granny, wolf pencil sharpener, suggestion to stay "on the story path"). And we all enjoyed the illustrations.
