All About the Little Small Red Hen - Illustrated by Johnny Gruelle

‘All About the Little Small Red Hen’ is written and illustrated by Johnny Gruelle. Gruelle (1880 – 1930), was an American artist, children’s book illustrator and author who's works have been entertaining children since 1918. Gruelle is best known for his ‘Raggedy Ann Series’, which chart the adventures of a little doll with red yarn for hair and a triangle nose. Amongst his other works are: All About Little Red Riding Hood (c1895), The Travels of Timmy Toodles (1916) and My Very Own Fairy Stories (1917). Sought after by collectors, this re-printed edition showcases Gruelle’s original text, further enhanced by his wonderful colour drawings, in order that the two may be fully appreciated by young and old alike.
