This is a really great version of the story. The illustrations are done with pencil, watercolor, gouache and ink and all seem to be moments captured in mid-movement, giving them a heightened sense of reality as opposed to other illustrations in which the characters look posed. The story is set in winter, which allows for some gorgeous contrast between the white snow-covered forest and the bright red of the cloak.
