Parents need to know that this Chinese version of the traditional Little Red Riding Hood story includes the eating of the little sister, and the killing of the tiger. Older kids should be fine with it, but it's not for younger readers.
Positive messages:Though the sisters quarrel with one another, as kids do, they also learn to take care of one another.
Violence & scariness:Nothing graphic is illustrated, but the tiger does eat the little sister, and hunts down the older one. She fights him, eventually drowning him, then cuts her sister from the tiger's stomach with a knife.
