Hello Year 7 Read the Story Below Then Complete the Tasks Which Follow Hello Year 7 Read the story below then complete the tasks which follow One day, Little Red Riding Hood’s mother said to her, “Take this basket of goodies to your grandma’s cottage, but don’t talk to strangers on the way!” Promising not to, Little Red Riding Hood skipped off. On her way, she met the Big Bad Wolf who asked, “Where are you going, little girl?” “To my grandma’s, Mr. Wolf!” she answered. However, The Big Bad Wolf ran to her grandmother’s cottage before Little Red Riding Hood and knocked on the door. When Grandma opened the door, he locked her up in the cupboard. The wicked wolf then wore Grandma’s clothes and lay on her bed, waiting for Little Red Riding Hood. When Little Red Riding Hood reached the cottage, she entered and went to Grandma’s bedside. “My! What big eyes you have, Grandma!” she said in surprise. “All the better to see you with, my dear!” replied the wolf. “My! What big ears you have, Grandma!” said Little Red Riding Hood. “All the better to hear you with, my dear!” said the wolf. “What big teeth you have, Grandma!” said Little Red Riding Hood. “All the better to eat you with!” growled the wolf, pouncing on her. Little Red Riding Hood screamed, and the woodcutters in the forest came running to the cottage. They beat the Big Bad Wolf and rescued Grandma from the cupboard. Grandma hugged Little Red Riding Hood with joy. The Big Bad Wolf ran away never to be seen again. Little Red Riding Hood had learnt her lesson and never spoke to strangers ever again. In the story, who does the writer make us feel sorry for? How do you know? ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ Who does the writer make us blame? How do you know? ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________ O.K., so you have heard Little Red Riding Hood’s story many times but did anyone ever think to check what The Wolf’s version of events was? How different could the story be from the wolf’s point of view? Maybe he isn’t so big and bad after all... Mr. Wolf’s Version of events: ‘Just because I look different, does it mean I have to be treated like this? I know I’ve got a face that looks mean, and I know my voice is rough; but that doesn’t mean I’m totally bad. They just shun me. They don’t even come near me; or, which is worse, run away from me when they see me. Do they consider how that makes me feel? Do they even care? They make me mad; and that, well, makes me bad. There’s only so long a person can take rejection.’ Your task now is to rewrite the story from the wolf’s point of view. You might think about: • What reasons could he give to excuse his behaviour • Whether Little Red Riding Hood really the sweet innocent girl she seems to be • If he really meant to eat Little Red Riding Hood’s grandma • Whether he was really trying to trick Little Red Riding Hood, or just playing a practical joke .

Pierson' The study of the interrelationship between law and literature is currently very much in vogue, yet many aspects of it are still relatively unexamined. While a few select works are discussed time and time again, general children's literature, a formative part of a child's emerging notion of justice, has been only rarely considered, and the traditional fairy tale2 sadly ignored. This lack of attention to the first examples of literature to which most people are exposed has had a limiting effect on the development of a cohesive study of law and literature, for, as Ian Ward states: It is its inter-disciplinary nature which makes children's literature a particularly appropriate subject for law and literature study, and it is the affective importance of children's literature which surely elevates the subject fiom the desirable to the necessary.

    Creating Little Red Riding Hood : Morality, Sexuality, and the Evolution of a Classic Tale Julia Gralczyk HON 395 Spring Quarter 2017 Thesis submitted in completion of Honors Senior Capstone requirements for the DePaul University Honors Program Thesis Director James Choi, Digital Cinema Faculty Reader Nancy Grossman, Honors 1 THESIS ABSTRACT Little Red Riding Hood is a classic tale commonly known about a young girl in a red cape and a big, bad wolf. The story’s simple plot however, has given it way to considerable changes and adaptations depending on cultural beliefs, regional dialects, and personal interpretations. For my final Honors Program assignment, I would like to create a creative thesis in the form of a short film that incorporates my personal interpretations surrounding the tale. I will be researching themes and motifs that explore Little Red as an older character struggling with the thresholds of innocence and womanhood, lust and seduction, and the relationship between the sexes. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

Introduction In 1697 French writer, Charles Perrault, published the earliest known printed version of Red Riding Hood. The invention of the tale cannot be credited to Perrault however, for many ​ scholars have insisted Little Red Riding Hood has ancient origins as a spoken folklore shared by ​ ​ local peasants in Europe as early as the 10th century. Nonetheless, Perrault set the president for a story that will later be told, retold, and remade for centuries to come, with her perennial popularity accredited to her ability to adapt to the times.

  • Little Red Riding Hood Story/ ENGLISH
    Little Red Riding Hood story/ ENGLISH Once upon a time, there lived a little girl called Little Red Riding Hood. She wore a beautiful red cape that her grandma had made for her. One day, her mother said, “Come here Little Red Riding Hood. Your grandma is not very well. I would like you to take this bread and cheese to her but remember to stay on the path.” Little Red Riding Hood set off to her grandma’s house. She lived on the other side of a forest. As Little Red Riding Hood was going through the wood, she met a wolf. He was waiting for her to get closer and closer and closer and then…. he jumped out from behind a tree! The wolf asked. “Where are you going to?” Little Red Riding Hood said, “I am going to see my grandma because she is not very well.” The wolf gazed at her and said, “See these pretty flowers? Why not pick some, I am sure your grandma would love them.” “What a good idea,” said Little Red Riding Hood, and she skipped from the path to look for flowers for her grandma. Then the wolf ran to grandma’s house and knocked on the door. ‘Knock, knock, knock!’ “Who is there?” asked grandma. “Little Red Riding Hood”, replied the wolf. Grandma whispered, “Come in, I am too ill to come to the door.” The wolf let himself in. Poor granny did not have time to say another word, before the greedy wolf gobbled her up! He put on her nightgown and nightcap.

  • The Tale of Charles Perrault and Puss in Boots Morna Daniels
    The Tale of Charles Perrault and Puss in Boots Morna Daniels In 1697 Charles Perrault published a small volume Histoires ou contes du temps passé, which became the source for a huge progeny of children’s books,pantomimes, ballets and folklore.1 The frontispiece of the first French edition shows an old lady telling stories by the fire-side, and a plaque above her reads Contes de ma mere LOye.2 In the first English edition, there is a similar picture, and the plaque is translated as Mother Goose’s Tales.This was the first time the French term appeared in an English book. In France it indicated that the story was a traditional one, told by old women who minded geese, or who cackled like geese; but in England it became applied to Perrault’s tales, which were often published without mentioning his name. Mother Goose entered the world of pantomime, often in association with Perrault’s characters. The stories were widely diffused, then re-collected by later folklore researchers, so that the Brothers Grimm collected German versions, believing them to be folk traditions. Not all of Perrault’s stories became equally popular.The eight stories in his collection were La belle au bois dormant, Le petit chaperon rouge, La barbe bleue, Le maître chat, ou le chat botté; Les fées,Cendrillon, ou la petite pantoufle de verre; Riquet à la houppe and Le petit Poucet.These are usually translated as ‘Sleeping Beauty’, ‘Little Red Riding Hood’, ‘Bluebeard’, ‘Puss in Boots’, ‘The fairies’ (or ‘The fairy’),‘Cinderella’,‘Riquet with the tuft’, and ‘Hop o’ my thumb’.

  • The Story of Little Red Riding Hood
    www.scholastic.co.ukhttp://www.scholastic.co.uk/ Fairytale Kingdom The Story of Little Red Riding Hood t one end of Long-Lost Wood, where the Wise Owl watched out for wolves, there lived a little girl. Whenever the wind whistled she wore a warm, scarlet cloak, so the animals called her Little Red Riding Hood. One breezy day her mother said, “You must take this basket of sweet cherry pies to Grandma’s house. Follow the twisty path, jump the puddles and NEVER speak to A the Big Bad Wolf.” Little Red Riding Hood skipped away. She followed the twisty path and jumped over the puddles until she came to a bramble bush. Oh no! A thorn spiked her scarlet cloak and held her tight. “Keep still, my dear,” boomed a deep voice. “I’ll soon set you free.” Sure enough, the thorn snapped, the cloak flapped and Little Red Riding Hood swung around. “Thank you,” she cried, but all she could see was a tall dark shape, standing in the shadows. “Where are you walking to, all alone?” it asked, in its deep, booming voice. Little Red Riding Hood thought she caught a glimpse of big eyes and sharp teeth. “To Grandma’s house,” answered Little Red Riding Hood nervously. “She lives at the other end of Long-Lost Wood, in the cottage with a green door.” At that moment an owl hooted and the dark shape was gone, melting into the trees. Little Red Riding Hood didn’t know she had just met the Big Bad Wolf, so she just wandered along happily, singing tunes to herself.
