The book is meant to refresh in our minds the universal, and still very up-to-date, story about the Little Red Riding Hood. The main character has been depicted wearing a mask, without stereotypical gender features attributed to girls (pigtails, fair hair, etc.). She is somewhat disguised and can be any one of us. Thus, the book presents a protagonist that has not been not fully defined, and, as a result, teaches children tolerance, which is probably the greatest strength of this tiny publication.
