Little Red Riding Hood

Once upon a time, there was a sweet little girl who was loved by everyone. Her Grandmother loved her most of all, and once gave her a red cloak which the girl liked so much that she would wear nothing else. So she was always called Little Red Riding Hood.

One day, when her father was out chopping wood, Little Red Riding Hood’s mother said to her “Your grandmother has been feeling ill. Go take this basket to her. In it I’ve put some eggs, juice, and cake.”

And so, Little Red Riding hood set off for her grandmother’s cottage in the middle of the woods. It was a bright and sunny morning. Along the way, Red Riding Hood was so happy she wanted to dance through the woods. All around her grew pretty wild flowers which she loved so much that she stopped to pick a bunch for her grandmother.

When Little Red Riding Hood stooped to pick a flower, a gruff voice behind her said, “Good morning, Little Red Riding Hood.” She turned around and saw a great big wolf, but she did not know what a wicked beast the wolf was, so she was not afraid.

“Good morning, Mr. Wolf”, she replied happily.

“Eggs and juice and cake.”

“What have you got in that basket, Little Red Riding Hood?”

“Where are you going with them, Little Red Riding Hood?”

“To my Grandmother’s. She’s quite ill.”

“Where does your grandmother live, Little Red Riding Hood?”

“A good half an hour further into the woods. Three large apple trees sit in front of her house. Surely you must know it.”

“I do indeed”, replied the wolf, and with that he set off whilst Little Red Riding Hood continued her search for pretty wild flowers.
