"Learning a foreign language , and the culture that goes with it, is one of the most useful things we can do to broaden the empathy and imaginative sympathy and cultural outlook of children."

LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

Little Red Riding Hood clip art


       This is Molly. Molly is a little girl living in the woods with her mother. She likes wearing red clothes all the time and also eating the cookies that her mother bakes. Molly has got an old granny living in the village at the far end of the woods. She also likes Molly's mother's cookies very much. So, Molly takes cookies to her every weekend. Today is Saturday and Molly is taking cookies to her granny as usual. However, the way is long, scary and full of dangers for her.

        This is the hungry, greedy, hairy and dangerous wolf of the deep woods. It has got big ears to hear, big and sharp teeth to eat.
        Now, Molly is on her way to granny's cottage. She is walking alone on the long path among the huge trees.
        Oh, no! Is that the big hungry wolf looking at her behind those leaves of the trees?
        Poor Molly notices the wolf and thinks that it is friendly, but the truth is ugly because the greedy wolf wants to eat her.
        The wolf comes near her and asks: "Where're you going my pretty?"
        Molly answers: "I'm taking cookies to my old granny living at the far end of the woods."
        The wolf thinks itself: "Yummy! She looks tasty. I can eat both the granny and this sweet girl."
        The wolf says goodbye to Molly and runs fast to the granny's cottage. It eats the poor old granny, wears her clothes and lies on her bed.
        Molly arrives soon. She knocks on the door. The wolf answers: "Come in sweetheart! I can't answer the door myself. You know I'm too old."
        Molly gets in, comes near the bed, looks at the wolf in her granny's clothes and gets surprised by her look. She wonders and asks: "Granny, what's the matter with you? Why do your ears look so big?"
        "To hear you better my sweety!" answers the wolf.
        Molly asks: "Why do your eyes look so big?"
        "To see you better my sweety!" answers the wolf.
        Molly asks again: "Why do your teeth look so big?"
        "To eat you!" shouts the wolf and eats the little girl up.
        A woodcutter hearing the screams rushes to the cottage and catches the running wolf. He cuts its stomach off and takes the poor Molly and her granny out.
        After getting rid of the greedy wolf, everybody in the woods and village live happily ever after...

                                                                   THE END :)
