Once upon a time there was a little girl who wore a beautiful red cape. Since the girl used
it very often, everyone called her Little Red Riding Hood.
One day, Little Red Riding Hood's mother called her and said:
—Grandma isn't feeling very well, I baked some cookies and I want you to take them to
her.
"Of course," answered Little Red Riding Hood, putting on her cape and filling her basket
with freshly baked cookies.
—Listen to me very well, stay on the path and never talk to strangers.
"I know mom," Little Red Riding Hood responded and immediately left for grandma's
house.
To get to grandma's house, Little Red Riding Hood had to cross a path through the thick
forest. On the way, she met the wolf.
—Hello little girl, where are you going on this wonderful day? —asked the wolf.
Little Red Riding Hood remembered that her mother had warned her not to talk to
strangers, but the wolf looked very elegant, and was also very friendly and polite.
"I'm going to grandma's house, Mr. Wolf," the girl answered. She is sick and I am going to
bring her these cookies to cheer her up a little.
—What a good girl you are! -exclaimed the wolf. —How far do you have to go?
—Oh! “I have to get to the end of the road, grandma lives there,” said Little Red Riding
Hood with a smile.
"I wish you a very happy day, my girl," replied the wolf.
The wolf went into the forest. He had a huge appetite and really wasn't to be trusted. So
he ran to Grandma's house before Little Red Riding Hood could catch up with him. His
plan was to eat Grandma, Little Red Riding Hood and all the freshly baked cookies.
The wolf knocked on grandma's door. Seeing him, the grandmother ran in terror, leaving
her shawl behind. The wolf took the old lady's shawl and then put on his glasses and his
night cap. Quickly, he climbed into grandma's bed, covering himself up to his nose with
the blanket. Soon he heard a knock on the door:
With your disguised voice, trying to sound like grandma, the wolf said:
Little Red Riding Hood thought that her grandmother was very sick because she looked
very pale and she sounded terrible.
With these words, the evil wolf threw the blanket off him and jumped out of bed.
Frightened, Little Red Riding Hood ran towards the door. Just then, a woodcutter
approached the door, which was ajar. Grandma was hiding behind him.
Upon seeing the woodcutter, the wolf jumped out of the window and fled in fear, never to
be seen.
Grandma and Little Red Riding Hood thanked the woodcutter for saving them from the
evil wolf and they all ate cookies with milk. That day Little Red Riding Hood learned an
important lesson:
—Abuelita no se siente muy bien, he horneado unas galleticas y quiero que tú se las
lleves.
Para llegar a casa de la abuelita, Caperucita debía atravesar un camino a lo largo del
espeso bosque. En el camino, se encontró con el lobo.
—Hola niñita, ¿hacia dónde te diriges en este maravilloso día? —preguntó el lobo.
Caperucita Roja recordó que su mamá le había advertido no hablar con extraños, pero el
lobo lucía muy elegante, además era muy amigable y educado.
—Voy a la casa de abuelita, señor lobo —respondió la niña—. Ella se encuentra enferma y
voy a llevarle estas galleticas para animarla un poco.
—¡Qué buena niña eres! —exclamó el lobo. —¿Qué tan lejos tienes que ir?
—¡Oh! Debo llegar hasta el final del camino, ahí vive abuelita—dijo Caperucita con una
sonrisa.
El lobo tocó la puerta de la abuela. Al verlo, la abuelita corrió despavorida dejando atrás
su chal. El lobo tomó el chal de la viejecita y luego se puso sus lentes y su gorrito de
noche. Rápidamente, se trepó en la cama de la abuelita, cubriéndose hasta la nariz con la
manta. Pronto escuchó que tocaban la puerta:
Caperucita Roja pensó que su abuelita se encontraba muy enferma porque se veía muy
pálida y sonaba terrible.
Con estas palabras, el malvado lobo tiró su manta y saltó de la cama. Asustada, Caperucita
salió corriendo hacia la puerta. Justo en ese momento, un leñador se acercó a la puerta, la
cual se encontraba entreabierta. La abuelita estaba escondida detrás de él.
Al ver al leñador, el lobo saltó por la ventana y huyó espantado para nunca ser visto.
La abuelita y Caperucita Roja agradecieron al leñador por salvarlas del malvado lobo y
todos comieron galleticas con leche. Ese día Caperucita Roja aprendió una importante
lección:
