Little Red Riding Hood
Once upon a time, there was a lovely little girl called Little Red
Riding Hood. She had this name because her grandma gave her
a little red hood, and she wore it every day. Her grandmother
loved her very much.
One day her mother said to her, “Little Red Riding Hood, please
take this basket of food to your grandmother. Be careful on the
way, and do not leave the path”.
“Don’t worry mum, I’ll be careful!” said Little Red Riding Hood
to her mother, and set out on the way to her grandmother’s.
Her grandmother lived in a village on the other side of the
wood. As Little Red Riding Hood entered the wood, a wolf met
her. She had never seen a wolf before, so she didn’t know they
were dangerous.
“Good day, Little Red Riding Hood. My name is Wolf. Nice to
meet you”.
“Hi Wolf. Nice to meet you too”.
“Where are you going, Little Red Riding Hood?”
“To my grandmother’s house”
“Where does she live?”
“She lives in the village on the other side of the wood over
there. It’s the first house in the village”, replied Little Red
Riding Hood.
The wolf walked next to Little Red Riding hood, and then said
“Look at those pretty flowers! Why don’t you pick some for your
grandmother?”
Little Red Riding Hood looked and saw all the pretty flowers.
She ran off the path, and started picking a bunch of flowers for
her grandmother.
Meanwhile, the wolf ran straight to grandmother’s house and
knocked on the door.
“Who’s there?”
“Little Red Riding Hood,” replied the wolf. “I have some food for
you, please open the door!”
Grandmother opened the door. The wolf quickly jumped in and
pushed grandmother into the closet.
“Help! Please let me out!” cried grandmother.
“Be quiet and stay in the closet!” The wolf put on
Grandmother’s dress, cap and glasses, and got into
Grandmother’s bed.
After Little Red Riding Hood had picked a big bunch of flowers,
she finally arrived at grandmother’s house. She saw the open
door, and called out “Good Morning!”. There was no answer.
She slowly went into the bedroom, and saw her grandmother
lying in bed, looking very strange.
“Oh! Grandmother,” she said, “what big ears you have!”
“All the better to hear you with, my child,” was the reply.
“But, grandmother, what big eyes you have!” she said.
“All the better to see you with, my dear.” Said the wolf.
“But, grandmother, what large hands you have!”
“All the better to hug you with.”
“Oh! but, grandmother, what a terrible big mouth you have!”
“All the better to eat you with!”
The wolf jumped out of bed and wanted to eat Little Red Riding
Hood. She shouted loudly and tried to run away.
Just then, a hunter was passing the house. He heard Little Red
Riding Hood’s cry and went into the house.
“Go away, wolf!” said the Hunter.
He pulled out his bow and shot the wolf. The wolf ran away, and
Little Red Riding Hood and her grandmother lived happily ever
after.
