LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD PART TWO Little Red Riding Hood walked swiftly along the woodland path, but the snow kept falling and the path ahead disappeared under the frozen whiteness of it, very quickly, Little Red Riding Hood became lost. As for the wolf, he really did know a short cut, he slunk through the tangled woods, over and under fallen trees and soon came to the clearing where Grandmother’s cottage stood. Of course, he arrived there long before Little Red Riding Hood, as he knew he would. The wolf knocked upon the door, and waited, he heard a trembling, old lady’s voice from behind the door. “Who is it?” Said the voice. The wolf put on his best little girl’s voice. “it’s me, granny, Little Red Riding Hood.” He said. “Lift up the latch and come in, my child!” Said granny. Quickly the wolf lifted the latch and ran into the cottage. He greedily swallowed Little Red Riding Hood’s granny in one, big, bite, then he latched the door shut, put on granny’s night gown and bonnet, and tucked himself into her bed, deep in the shadows of the cottage. Little Red Riding Hood wasn’t lost for very long, but she was annoyed with herself - she thought that she must surely have lost the competition with the wolf, but as she found her way again, and approached her granny’s cottage, she could see that the wolf wasn’t there waiting for her - and there were no wolf footprints in the snow. Maybe she had won the competition after all! What Little Red Riding Hood didn’t realise, as she knocked on her granny’s door, was that the falling snow had already covered the wolf’s footprints. “Granny? Grandmother? Can I come in?” Said Little Red Riding Hood, after knocking on the door. A high trembling voice spoke from behind the door. “Is that my little Granddaughter?” “Yes, Granny, it’s me, Little Red Riding Hood.” “Then lift up the latch and come in, my child.” Said the trembling voice. Little Red Riding Hood did as she was told and entered the dark cottage.
