One Halloween morning, Little Red Riding Hood asked her mother if she could visit her grandmother, who lived at the end of the woods. Her mother thought that was a great idea and sent her on her way with a basket of goodies...
Of course, Little Red Riding Hood always gets distracted and found little, wonderful things to put in her basket that she didn't notice the little creature lurking behind her...
Suddenly, Little Red Riding Hood found her self face to face with the Big Bad, I mean, "Brave" Wolf. The wolf said, "Little girl, where are you going?" Little Red Riding Hood replied, "I am on my way to visit my grandmother, who lives at the end of the woods."
Then they parted ways, but little did Little Red Riding Hood know that the wolf was still keeping an eye on her and was planning to take a shortcut to her grandmother's house...
Little Red Riding Hood was having so much fun in the woods that she didn't realize how late it was, so she hurried as fast as she could to get to her grandmother's house...
At last Little Red Riding Hood made it to her grandmother's house and she knocked on the door. Then, she heard a soft, scratchy voice say, "Come in..."
When Little Red Riding hood went in, she could barely recognize her grandmother...
So Little Red Riding Hood knelt besides her grandmother and asked if she felt alright. The Big Brave Wolf disguised as her grandmother replied, "I just have a cold, my dear." Little Red Riding said, "Oh grandmother, I brought lots of goodies that will hopefully make you feel better." The Big Brave Wolf replied, "You are all I need, my dear."
Then, Little Red Riding looked closely and said, "My grandmother, what big eyes you have!!!" The Big Brave Wolf replied, "The better to see you with, my dear."
Little Red Riding Hood, didn't notice the wolf's tail peeking out from under the cover. So innocently, Little Red Riding Hood thought that her grandmother might feel better if she laid down next to her...
Then Little Red Riding Hood said, "My grandmother, what big teeth, I mean gums, you have!!!"
Then the Big Brave Wolf replied, "The better to eat you with!!!" All of a sudden, Little Red Riding Hood realized it was the Big Brave Wolf in disguise and quickly got out of bed and ran out of her grandmother's house...
Little Red Riding Hood decided to hide in the woods and watch her grandmother's house from afar. She waited until she saw the Big Brave Wolf leave the house...
Once the wolf left, Little Red Riding Hood went looking all over the house for her grandmother. She couldn't find her. Then, she looked on the fridge and saw a note. It read..."Dear Little Red Riding Hood, your mother called me on my cellphone and told me you were coming. So, I went to the closest market to get some soy milk and whole wheat flour, so that we can bake some healthy cookies together. Will be back soon. Love, Grandmother."
Little Red Riding felt relief knowing her grandmother was not harmed and that the wolf was out of the house. She immediately thanked the Lord for the trial and for keeping her and her grandmother safe. So Little Red Riding Hood made herself comfortable in her grandmother's house and waited for her to come home...
THE END
Happy Halloween!!!
