    Little Red describe as a charming, kind and thoughtful little girl. She is well-liked by everyone she meets, especially her grandmother. Although, she is somewhat naive and too ingenious toward strangers which causes her a lot of problems.

    The big bad wolf is scary, mean, nasty and sneaky because he tried to trick poor little Red. He met Little Red in the shaded woods and pretended to be a grandmother to that he could gobble Little Red.

    The grandmother is an old and frail woman who struggles to get around easily. She also ill and needs nourishment from the food packed away by Little Red’s mother for her health.

    The woodcutter is a kind, strong and brave man who helped Little Red and her grandmother. The woodcutter hit the wolf over the head, the wolf ran away and Little Red never saw the wolf again,

    Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Little Red Riding Hood. She was told by her mother to take the basket full of red, delicious crunchy apples to her grandma’s cottage. Her mother told her to not to talk to any strangers along the way. Little Red Riding Hood skipped through the dark mysterious woods. Along the way she met a terrifying, shaggy, evil wolf. The evil and nasty wolf asked Little Red Riding Hood with his deep, growling voice “where are you going little girl?”. Little Red Riding Hood replied “i’m going to my lovely grandma’s cottage because she is very sick”. The fierce, mean wolf licked his lips whilst feeling very hungry and speeded to her grandma’s cottage.
    The cunning wolf arrived to grandma’s cottage and put on grandma’s gown and got into her cosy bed. A little while later, Little Red Riding Hood gently knocked on the door. The scary wolf said “come in my dear”. Little Red Riding Hood walked into grandma’s cottage into her room and says “ Oh grandma what big ears you have”. The wolf replied “the better to hear you with my dear”. “Oh grandma what big eyes you have” said Little Red Riding Hood. The wolf answered “ my big eyes will help me to see you better with my dear”. “Oh grandma what big teeth you have” expressed Little Red Riding Hood. The wold responded “ my teeth will help me to eat you my dear”. “Help!” screamed Little Red Riding Hood as she realised there was a enormous scary wolf in grandma’s bed.
    A woodcutter was near by and heard Little Red Riding Hood scream. He ran through the mysterious forest to help the little girl. He reached the cottage and hit the wolf on the head with a axe and saved Little Red Riding Hood from the wicked wolf. After that day she never saw the terrifyingly wolf again.
    The End

      Question for the wolf:
      How did the wicked wolf know where grandma’s cottage was and why did he want to do what he did?

    Once upon a time there was a girl called Little Red Riding Hood then her mum said she must get some apples for her poorly and sick Gramma .
    On her way through the forest she met with an evil and fierce wolf, he has evil ideas. The wolf asked Little Red Riding Hood where are you going? She replied I’m going to my Gramma, the wolf said I’m coming with you. The wolf was faster than Little Red Riding Hood and ate the poorly,sick Gramma and then he changed his clothes into poorly, sick Gramma.
    When Little Red Riding Hood arrived she was frustrated and she said Gramma what big ears you have all the better to hear you with. Gramma what big eyes you have all the better to see you with. Gramma what big mouth you have all the better to eat you with.
