From the Author:

I had a revelation (or was it an epiphany?) when reading the passage from Steve Allen's 1955 classic "Bop Fables" where Little Red Riding Hood questions the wolf in a grandma disguise. "I don't want to sound square or anything," she says, "but you don't look like my grandmother at all. You look like some other cat." It dawned on me that this little basket carrying chick was doing some detective work (questions about big teeth, big ears, etc.) to solve a mystery.
