Collins Big Cat supports every primary child on their reading journey from phonics to fluency. Top authors and illustrators have created fiction and non-fiction books that children love to read. Levelled for guided and independent reading, each book includes ideas to support reading. Teaching and assessment support and eBooks are also available.

Adam doesn’t know if he’s dreaming when he finds himself plunged into the fairytale world of Little Red Riding Hood. When he meets the sinister wolf and realises that Red is in danger, he has a choice to make. Does he have what it takes to be a hero?

Topaz/Band 13 books offer longer and more demanding reads for children to investigate and evaluate.

Pages 30 and 31 allow children to re-visit the content of the book, supporting comprehension skills, vocabulary development and recall.

Biography

Mio loves spinning stories, and sharing strange and fascinating facts with readers of all ages. At other times, she can often be found: talking enthusiastically about, or curled up with a good book; exploring; cooking (and eating!) yummy food; panting up and down the mountains of Hong Kong with her dog, her husband, and a camera; or dreaming up more stories to tell!

During her primary school years in Hong Kong, Mio was given a book of Western fairy tales. Although she loved plunging into the fairy tale universe, Mio noticed that the girl characters tended to be rather powerless, and often had to be rescued from dangerous situations. Having become newly brave herself, only a few years before, Mio wished she could make these fairy tale girls become more bold, smart and sassy, too!

Many years have passed since then, but having the wish come true made writing ‘Adam and Little Red’ – a story about facing your fears, friendship and also, being sassy – especially enjoyable!
