17. Beginning Once upon a time there lived in a certain village a little country girl, the prettiest creature who was ever seen. Her mother was excessively fond of her; and her grandmother doted on her still more. This good woman had a little red riding hood made for her. It suited the girl so extremely well that everybody called her Little Red Riding Hood. One day her mother, having made some cakes, said to her, "Go, my dear, and see how your grandmother is doing, for I hear she has been very ill. Take her a cake, and this little pot of butter." Little Red Riding Hood set out immediately to go to her grandmother, who lived in another village. As she was going through the wood, she met with a wolf, who had a very great mind to eat her up, but he dared not, because of some woodcutters working nearby in the forest.

18. Middle He asked her where she was going. The poor child, who did not know that it was dangerous to stay and talk to a wolf, said to him, "I am going to see my grandmother and carry her a cake and a little pot of butter from my mother." "Does she live far off?" said the wolf "Oh I say," answered Little Red Riding Hood; "it is beyond that mill you see there, at the first house in the village." "Well," said the wolf, "and I'll go and see her too. I'll go this way and go you that, and we shall see who will be there first.” … Wolf goes to eat grandmother and dress up in her close … Little Red Riding Hood took off her clothes and got into bed. She was greatly amazed to see how her grandmother looked in her nightclothes, and said to her, "Grandmother, what big arms you have!" "All the better to hug you with, my dear." "Grandmother, what big legs you have!" "All the better to run with, my child." "Grandmother, what big ears you have!" "All the better to hear with, my child." "Grandmother, what big eyes you have!" "All the better to see with, my child." "Grandmother, what big teeth you have got!" "All the better to eat you up with."

19. End And, saying these words, this wicked wolf fell upon Little Red Riding Hood, and ate her all up.

21. News Story Wolf Eats Grandmother and Grandchild Yesterday, a girl known as ’little red riding hood’ and her grandmother was eaten by a wolf. The tragic incident took place in the grandmothers house. The girl was last seen alive by woodcutters when walking through the woods seperating her families house from that of her grandmothers. One woodcutter claims to have seen the little girl in conversation with a wolf, but she was unharmed and alone when she countinued walking in the direction of her grandmothers house. Evidence at the scene suggests that the grandmother was eaten first and police speculates that the wolf lured the little girl into the house disguised as the grandmother. ”This is the worst attack in years”. Says a spokesman from the Mayors Office. And indeed the area hasn’t seen multiple victim wolf attacks in more than a decade. Opposition politicians claim that deforrestation in neighboring counties drives wolfes to these parts and blames the Mayor for dealing with these problems to late
