    #GOLD#

    In good old days, there was an old village near a forest.
    There was a little sweet girl in this village.
    Her grandmother gifted her a red riding hood then everybody called her “Little Red Riding Hood”.

    One day, her mother told her to visit her grandmother who lives in the forest and warned not to talk to strangers.

    When she was walking in the forest, she met a wolf who asked where she was going.
    She said I’m going to my granny’s house.
    The wolf ran to her grandmother’s house and locked granny in the wardrobe.

    The wolf pulled the blanket up to his chin and pretended to be
    Granny.

    When she came she saw the wolf in the bed and she said;
    -“Oh Granny, what big eyes you have?”
    -“All the better to see you with!” said the wolf.
    -“Oh Granny, what big ears you have?”
    -“All the better to hear you with!” said the wolf
    -“Oh Granny, what big teeth you have?”
    -“All the better to eat you with!” said the wolf.

    Little Red Riding Hood screamed. Near by, a woodcutter heard her scream and ran into the house. He banged the wolf’s head and the wolf run away.

    She gave the basket of food to her grandmother and they never saw the wolf again.

    Once upon a time, there lived a little girl called Red Riding Hood who lived in a village. One day her mother asked her to go and visit her granny and take her a basket of food and some flowers. So Red Riding Hood set off through the forest.

    During her journey, she saw a large, scary wolf!
    The wolf came over to the little girl and growled, “Where are you going?”.
    Red Riding Hood nervously replied, “I’m going to visit my grandma”.

    The wolf was very cunning and decided that he would run quickly to Granny’s house and get there before Red Riding Hood so he could trick her.

    Little Red Riding Hood arrived at her granny’s house and was surprised to find her Granny looking a little bit strange.
    “What big eyes you have!” said Red Riding Hood.
    “All the better to see you with” replied granny (who was actually the wolf!)

    “What big ears you have!” said Red Riding Hood.
    “All the better to hear you with” replied Granny.

    “What big teeth you have!” said Red Riding Hood, who was starting to feel a little scared.
    “All the better to EAT you with!” shouted the wolf who had dressed up in Granny’s clothes.

    The little girl screamed loudly. A nearby woodcutter heard the scream and ran into granny’s house. He chased the crafty wolf away and broke open the wardrobe where the wolf had locked away Granny.

    Red Riding Hood was so happy to see her grandmother safe and sound.

    The woodcutter, Red Riding Hood and Granny all shared the food in the basket together and lived happily ever after.
