Red Riding Hood: “Mum, can I visit my granny? I missed her very much.
Mother:“That’s a good idea. Remember,go straight toGrandma’shouse.Don’t dawdle along the way and please don’t talk to strangers! The woods are dangerous.
Red Riding Hood:“ Don’t worry, mummy. I’ll be careful.”
Wolf: “What are you doing out here, little girl?”
Red Riding Hood; “I’m on my way to see my Grandma who lives in the forest, near the brook.”
[ A few minutes later, Red Riding Hood knocked on the door.The wolf jumped into the bed and pulled the covers over his nose.}
Wolf: “Who is it?”
Red Riding Hood: “It’s me, little Red Riding Hood.”
Wolf: “Oh, how lovely! Do come in, my dear.”
Red Riding Hood:”Grandmother! Your voice sounds so odd. Is something the matter?
Wolf: “Oh, I just have touch of a cold,”
Red Riding Hood: “But Grandmother! What big ears you have.”
Wolf: “The better to hear you my dear”
Red Riding Hood:”But Grandmother! What big eyes you have.”
Wolf:”The better to see you, my dear.”
Red Riding Hood:”But Grandmother! What big teeth you have”
Wolf:” The better to eat you, my dear.”
{The wolf leapt out of the bed and began to chase the little girl. Little Red Riding Hood realized that the person in the bed was not her grandmother, but a hungry wolf. She ran across the room and shouted “Help! Help!Wolf!” A woodsman who was chopping logs nearby heard her cry and ran towards the house as fast as he could.And he grabbed the wolf.}
Red Riding Hood:”Oh, grandma, I was so scared! I’ll never speak to strangers or dawdle in the forest again.”
