Little Red Riding Hood |
This is the
story of a little girl, her grandma and a big bad wolf.
The little
girl lived in a little white house. The house was in a village and the village
was near a forest.
She was a
good little girl. Her mother and father loved her very much. Her grandma loved
her very much too.
The little
girl's grandma lived in a very old house in the middle of the forest.
They
little girl often went to her grandma's house.
One
Christmas, Grandma gave the little girl a beautiful red cloak with a hood.
'Oh, thank
you!' said the little girl.
She wore the
cloak all day on Christmas Day and the next day too. She wore it all the time,
so people gave her a new name. They called her 'Little Red Riding Hood'.
One day her
mother said, 'Little Red Riding Hood, your grandma is ill. Go to her house and
take her this basket of bread and butter. Walk quickly to her house. Don't stop
and play. And don't leave the road. Do you understand?'
'Yes,
Mother,' said Little Red Riding Hood.
Little Red
Riding Hood took the basket and ran into the forest.
She walked
very quickly. She did not stop and play. But soon after, she saw… … a wolf!
'Hello,' said
the wolf. 'How are you today?'
'I'm very
well, Thank you,' she answered.
'But my
grandma is ill. I'm taking this basket of bread and butter to her.'
'Are you?'
said the wolf. 'That's interesting!'
The wolf was
very hungry. He looked of at Little Red Riding Hood with his big hungry eyes.
'Where does
your grandma live?' he asked.
'She lives in
a little old house in the middle of the forest,' said Little Red Riding hood.
'Is it far?'
'No. It's
very near here.'
Mmm,' thought
the wolf. 'Perhaps I can eat this little girl and her grandma.'
'Look over
there!' said the wolf. 'Can you see those nice flowers? Does your grandma like
flowers? You can go and get some for her.'
'Oh no. I
can't,' said Little Red Riding hood. 'I can't leave the road.'
'But you can
come back to the road later,' said the wolf.
'Yes … that's
true,' said Little Red Riding Hood slowly. 'I can. Oh, all right!'
So she walked
through the trees to the flowers.
Now the bad
wolf ran quickly to Grandma's house.
He went to
the door and knocked
'Who is it?'
called Little Red Riding Hood's grandma.
'It's me,
Grandma!' the wolf answered. 'It's Little Red Riding Hood!'
'Open the
door and come in, dear.'
'Where are
you, Grandma?' called the wolf.
'I'm upstairs
in bed, dear. I am ill today and I can't get up.'
'I've got
some nice bread and butter for you,' called the wolf.
He went up
the stairs and ran into Grandma's bedroom. Then he jumped onto the bed and
opened hid big month and ate her!
The wolf put
on one of Grandma's nightdresses, and got into her bed and waited. He waited
for Little Red Riding Hood.
Little Red
Riding Hood got lots of beautiful flowers in the forest.
Then suddenly she remembered her grandma.
'Oh dear!'
she said. 'I'm going to be late!'
She run back
to the road, and soon she came to her grandma's house. She stopped when she saw
the open door.
'That's
strange,' through Little Red Riding Hood. 'Why is Grandma's door open?' And she
went in.
The wolf
heard Little Red Riding Hood.
'Who is it?'
he called.
'It's me,
Grandma! It's Little Red Riding Hood.'
'I'm upstairs
in bed, dear,' called the wolf. 'I am ill today and I can't get up.'

So Little Red
Riding Hood went up the stairs.
'Grandma's
voice is very strange today!' she thought. 'It's because she is ill.'
Little Red
Riding Hood went into the bedroom.
'Hello,
Grandma,' she said. 'I am sorry you are ill today. Look! I've got some nice
bread and butter for you. And some beautiful flowers!'
'Thank you,
dear,' said the wolf. 'Put them on the table and come here.'
So Little Red
Riding Hood Put down her basket and went to the bed.
'Oh,
Grandma,' she said, 'you look very strange today!'
And suddenly
she was afraid.
'Oh,
Grandma,' said Little Red Riding Hood, 'you've got very big eyes big eyes
today!'
'That's
because I want to see you, my dear,' said the wolf.
'Oh,
Grandma,' said Little Red Riding Hood, 'you've got very big ears today!'
'That's
because I want to hear you, my dear,' said the wolf.
'Oh, Grandma,
you've got a very big nose today!'
'That's
because I want to smell those because flowers, my dear.'
'You've got a
very big month today and a lot of very big teeth!'
'Yes, my
dear,' said the wolf. 'And that's because I want to eat you!'
Ant the wolf
jumped out of the bed and ate Little Red Riding Hood.
Now the wolf
was big and fat and he wanted to go to sleep. HE took off Grandma's nightdress
and put it on the floor.
Then he got
back into bed and went to sleep. Soon he began to snore loudly.
'Zhhhh,' he
snored. 'Zhhhhh!
Soon after,
Little Red Riding Hood's father came to the house. He saw the open door.
'That's
strange,' he thought. 'Why is the door open? And what's that noise?'
'Zhhhhhh,'
snored the wolf. 'Zhhhhhhh!!'
'Grandma's
voice is very strange today,' thought Little Red Riding Hood's father.
He went
upstairs to grandma's bedroom. He looked at the bed and saw the wolf.
'It's you!'
he said. He knew about the wolf. All the men in the village wanted to find it
and kill it.
'What are you
doing in grandma's bed?
Well, you
can't run away now.'
And he took
his knife and killed the wolf.
Then he
thought, 'Perhaps Grandma is alive!'
Si Little Red
Riding Hood's father took his knife and cut open the wolf. And Little Red
Riding Hood jumped out.
'Oh, Father!
Quick! Help Grandma. She's in there, in the dark!'
Then Grandma
jumped out.
'Oh! Oh!
Where's that bad wolf?' she said.
'Everything's
all right now,' said Little Red Riding Hood's father. 'The wolf is dead.'
So Grandma had a cup of tea and some nice bread and butter.
Then Little
Red Riding Hood and her father went home to their little white house. Little
Red Riding Hood ran to her mother and told her everything.
'But it's all
right now!' she said.
'Yes,' said her
mother. 'But Little Red Riding Hood, do not talk to wolves again. And do not
leave the road when you go through the forest. Do you understand?'
'Yes,
Mother.
After that,
Little Red Riding Hood always stayed on the road. And she never saw a wolf
again.
