Erin’s new Once Upon the West Series

Little Red Riding Boots is Texas children’s author Erin Zwiener’s debut picture book.  The fractured fairy tale with a western twist is also the first book in Erin’s

Once Upon the West Fairy Tale Series. 


Look for her encore, Snow White & the Seven Burros, in 2020.


Illustrations for Little Red Riding Boots are by Merisha Sequoia (Lemmer) Clark, a Choctaw illustrator who makes her home in California.

Author Erin Zwiener

And everywhere she went she wore her bright red boots with jangling spurs and a five-gallon hat. (Ten-gallon hats being much too big for little girls.)
