‘Once Upon a Wild Wood‘ Little Green Cape prepares to explore story tale lands en route to Rapunzel’s party. In her green rain cape she adventures past a kindly old lady offering an apple, a lonely Beast, recovers a discarded harp and creeps from a cave of three bears.
Green is a capable, alert heroine. She is aware of potential danger and stands up for herself. Green makes connections in her new setting and helps out. When Thumbelina sighs, ‘Fairy tale problems!’ Green is quick to lend a hand. This isn’t a heroine who will be swayed by princes, or short-sighted witches with plans for boiled greens!
Chris Riddell has invested Green with a 21st century attitude. She is not cowered or victim, but undistracted in her pursuit. HIs text is plucky and strong. ‘Once Upon a Wild Wood’ is packed to the leaf tips with glorious, inviting, laden pictures to delight and entrance. ‘Once Upon a Wild Wood’ is a wonderful book that Bookwagon is proud to stock. We recommend this beautiful book as a ‘forever’ title for home, bedtime reading and sharing.
‘Once Upon a Wild Wood‘ Little Green Rain Cape set off on a fairytale adventure to Rapunzel’s party. Who will she meet? What adventures await? Join Green on her route through the woods, cheering on her indomitable curiosity and initiative!

Bookwagon sells books we’ve read and love only. Every book we sell online, by order, through subscription, or at our popup book fairs, is known to us. We make informed recommendations.
We curate our selection for your event based upon what you tell us and what we know. We seek ‘forever’ titles, i.e., books that children, parents and schools will really enjoy, want to read again and keep. Many of our books are from lesser known publishers, translated, or published abroad.
Bob and I sell directly at an event. We hold enhanced DBS certificates. Frequently we are asked to ‘show and tell’, so that we talk about the selection with classes and/or parents. Most often schools want our popup book fairs to run after school so that parents have the opportunity to browse and buy.
We discount the books we sell without adversely affecting the writer and/or picture book maker. We sell books, only books, at our popup book fairs.
Schools ask us for return visits, which makes us happy.
We offer a magnificent variety of titles from a broad range of genres, publishers, and origins. We consider reading preferences and ages in our selection. Bookwagon is an independent children’s bookseller, focused entirely on supporting families and schools’ efforts to build readers for life.
There is no fee for a Bookwagon popup book fair and no target sales figure. You receive a 20% commission based on our sales, for you to spend as you wish in the Bookwagon online shop.
