Speaker 1 (00:00):
Little Red riding Hood by Horace E. Scudder. Once upon
a time there lived in a certain village a little girl.
Her mother was very fond of her, and her grandmother
loved her even more. This good old woman made for
her a red cloak, which suited the child so well
that ever after she was called Little Red riding Hood.

(00:23):
One day her mother made some cakes and said to
Little Red riding Hood, go, my dear, and see how
grandmother does, for I hear that she has been very ill.
Carry her a cake in a little pot of butter.
Little Red riding Hood set out at once to go
to her grandmother, who lived in another village. As she

(00:44):
was going through the wood, she met a large wolf.
He had a very great mind to eat her up,
but he dared not, for there were some wood choppers
near by, So he asked her, where are you going,
little girl. The poor child did not know that it
was dangerous to stop and talk with the wolf, and

(01:04):
she said, 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? Asked the wolf. Oh, yes,
it is beyond that mill at the first house in
the village. Well, said the wolf. I will go and

(01:25):
see her too. I will go this way, do you
go that, and we will see who will be there?
Soonest At this, the wolf began to run as fast
as he could, taking the nearest way, and Little Red
riding Hood went by the farthest. She stopped often to
chase a butterfly or pluck a flower, and so she

(01:47):
was a good while on the way. The wolf was
soon at the old woman's house and knocked at the door,
tap tap, Who is there, your grandchild, Little Red riding
Hood replied the wolf, changing his voice, I have brought
you a cake and a pot of butter from mother.

(02:10):
The good grandmother, who was ill in bed, called out,
pull the string and the latch will go up. The
wolf pulled the string, and the latch went up. The
door opened, and he jumped in and fell upon the
old woman and ate her up in less than no time,
for he had not tasted food for three days. He

(02:33):
then shut the door and got into the grandmother's bed.
By and by, Little Red riding Hood came and knocked
at the door, tap tap, Who is there? Little Red
riding Hood heard the big voice of the wolf, and
at first she was afraid. Then she thought her grandmother
must have a bad cold, So she answered, Little Red

(02:57):
Riding Hood, I have brought you a cake and a
pot of butter for mother. The wolf softened his voice
as much as he could, and called out, pull the
string and the latch will go up. Little Red riding
Hood pulled the string, and the latch went up, and
the door opened. The wolf was hiding under the bedclothes

(03:19):
and called out in a muffled voice, put the cake
in the pot of butter on the shelf, and come
to bed. Little Red riding Hood made ready for bed.
Then she looked with wonder at her grandmother, who had
changed so much, and she said, grandmother, what great arms

(03:40):
you have, the better to hug you, my dear grandmother.
What great ears you have, the better to hear you,
my dear grandmother. What great eyes you have, the better
to see you, my dear grandmother. What great teeth you have,

(04:05):
the better to eat you. And at this the wicked
wolf sprang up and fell upon poor Little Red riding
Hood and ate her all up end of Little Red
riding Hood
