A long time ago there lived in a village a girl so pretty that she was the best in the world. Her mother loved her without memory, and her grandmother loved her even more.

For her granddaughter's birthday, her grandmother gave her a red cap. Since then, the girl went everywhere in her new, elegant red cap. Neighbors said this about her:
Here comes Little Red Riding Hood!
Once mom baked a pie and said to Little Red Riding Hood:

- Go, daughter, to your grandmother, take this pie and a pot of butter to her and find out if she is healthy.
Little Red Riding Hood got ready and went to her grandmother, to another village.
Little Red Riding Hood is walking through the forest, and towards her is the Gray Wolf.

He really wanted to eat the girl, he did not dare: somewhere nearby, woodcutters were banging with axes. The Wolf licked his lips and asked Little Red Riding Hood:

Where are you going, girl? And Little Red Riding Hood did not yet know how dangerous it was to stop in the forest and talk to the wolves. She greeted Wolf and said:
- I go to my grandmother and bring her this pie and a pot of butter.
- How far does your grandmother live? Wolf asks.
“Far away,” says Little Red Riding Hood. - In the village, behind the mill, in the first house from the edge.
- Okay, - says the Wolf, - I also want to visit your grandmother. I'll go down this road, and you go down that one. Let's see which one of us arrives first.
The Wolf said this and ran, which was in his spirit, along the shortest path.

And Little Red Riding Hood went along the longest road. Little Red Riding Hood walked slowly, stopping every now and then along the way, picking flowers and collecting them in bouquets.
Before Little Red Riding Hood had even reached the mill, the Wolf had already galloped up to the grandmother's house and was knocking on the door:
- Knock Knock!
- Who's there? Grandma asks.
- It's me, your granddaughter, - the Wolf answers in a thin voice. - I came to visit you, I brought a pie and a pot of butter.
And the grandmother was sick at that time and lay in bed. She thought that it really was Little Red Riding Hood, and she called out:
“Pull the rope, my child, and the door will open!”
The wolf pulled the rope - the door opened.

The wolf rushed to the grandmother and swallowed her. He was very hungry because he had not eaten anything for three days.

Then he closed the door, lay down on his grandmother's bed and began to wait for Little Red Riding Hood. Soon she came and knocked:

- Knock Knock!
“Who is there?” Wolf asks.
And his voice is rough, hoarse. Little Red Riding Hood was frightened at first, but then she thought that her grandmother was hoarse from a cold and that's why she had such a voice.
“It's me, your granddaughter,” says Little Red Riding Hood. - I brought you a pie and a pot of butter!
The wolf cleared his throat and said more subtly:
“Pull the string, my child, and the door will open.”
Little Red Riding Hood pulled the string - the door opened. Little Red Riding Hood came in, and the Wolf hid under the covers and said:

- Put the pie on the table, granddaughter, put the pot on the shelf, and lie down next to me! You must be very tired.
Little Red Riding Hood lay down next to the Wolf and asked:
- Grandma, why do you have such big hands?
“This is to hug you tighter, my child.
- Grandma, why do you have such big ears?
“To hear better, my child.
- Grandma, why do you have such big eyes?
“To see better, my child.
- Grandma, why do you have such big teeth?
- And this is to quickly eat you, my child!
Before Little Red Riding Hood had time to gasp, the evil Wolf rushed at her and swallowed her along with her shoes and the red cap.
But, fortunately, at that very time, woodcutters with axes on their shoulders were passing by the house.

They heard a noise, ran into the house and killed the Wolf. And then they ripped open his belly, and Little Red Riding Hood came out, followed by her grandmother, both safe and sound.

The end of the tale remained just as sad - Perrault only moralized the tale, introducing the motive of the girl's violation of decency, for which she paid, and concluded the tale with poetic morality, instructing the girls to beware of seducers.

A happy ending just appeared. And now we will read "The Tale of Little Red Riding Hood" in this particular variant.

There lived a little girl in the world. Her mother loved her without memory, and her grandmother even more. For her granddaughter's birthday, her grandmother gave her a red cap. Since then, the girl went everywhere in it. Neighbors said the same about her:

Here comes Little Red Riding Hood!

Once mom baked a pie and said to her daughter:

Go, Little Red Riding Hood, to your grandmother, bring her a pie and a pot of butter, and find out if she is healthy.

Little Red Riding Hood got ready and went to her grandmother.

She goes through the forest, and towards her is a gray wolf.

Where are you going, Little Red Riding Hood? Wolf asks?

I go to my grandmother, I bring her a pie and a pot of butter.

- How far does your grandmother live?

Far away, says Little Red Riding Hood. - Over there in that village, behind the mill, in the first house from the edge.

- Okay, - says the Wolf, - I also want to visit your grandmother. I'll go down this road, and you go down that one. And let's see which of us will come first.

The Wolf said this and ran, which was in his spirit, along the shortest path. And Little Red Riding Hood went slowly along the longest road. She walked slowly, stopping along the way, picking flowers and picking bouquets. Before she even had time to reach the mill, the Wolf had already galloped to her grandmother's house, and there was a knock on the door: Knock-knock!

- Who's there? Grandma asks?

- It's me, your granddaughter, Little Red Riding Hood, - the Wolf answers in a thin voice, - I came to visit you and brought you a pie and a pot of butter.

And the grandmother at that time was sick, and lay in bed. She thought that Little Red Riding Hood had indeed come, and she called out:

The wolf pulled the rope, the door opened. The wolf was very hungry, because he had not eaten anything for a whole week before. So he rushed at his grandmother and swallowed her at once. Right in its entirety, only glasses and a cap from my grandmother remained. Then the Wolf closed the door, lay down in bed in his grandmother's place, put on his glasses with a cap, and began to wait for Little Red Riding Hood. Soon, indeed, Little Red Riding Hood came and knocked on the door:

- Who's there? - asks the Wolf in a rough, hoarse voice?

Little Red Riding Hood was frightened at first, and then she thought that her grandmother was sick and hoarse from a cold. So she replied:

It's me, your granddaughter Little Red Riding Hood. I brought you a pie and a piece of butter!

The wolf cleared his throat and said more subtly:

“Pull the string, my child, and the door will open!”

Little Red Riding Hood pulled the string - the door opened. She went inside, and the Wolf hid under the covers and said:

- Put it on the table, my child, put the pot on the shelf, and sit down next to me yourself!

Little Red Riding Hood sat down next to the bed and asked:

“Grandma, why do you have such big hands?”

“This is to hug you tighter, my child!” Wolf answers.

“Grandma, why do you have such big ears?”

- And this is to hear you better, my child!

“Grandma, why do you have such big eyes?”

“And this is to see you better, my child!”

“Grandma, why do you have such big teeth?”

- And this is to eat you faster, my child! - The Wolf answered, and before Little Red Riding Hood had time to gasp, the Wolf rushed at her and swallowed her whole.

Fortunately, woodcutters with axes on their shoulders were passing by the house at that time. They heard a noise in the house, ran in and killed the Wolf. And then they cut open his belly, and Little Red Riding Hood came out, followed by her grandmother. Both are alive and unharmed.

Here is such a fairy tale. And it's interesting. If grandmother was ordered to care for bedridden patients, would the nurse help fight off the wolf? 🙂

Fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood read

There lived a little girl. She was modest and kind, obedient and hardworking. Mother could not get enough of the fact that she had such an assistant: her daughter helped her with the housework, and when all the work was done, she read something aloud to her mother.

Everyone liked this sweet girl, but her grandmother loved her the most. She once sewed a hat out of red velvet and gave it to her granddaughter for her birthday.

The new hat suited the girl very much, and because from that day on she did not want to wear any other, people called her Little Red Riding Hood.

One day my mother decided to bake a cake.

She kneaded the dough, and Little Red Riding Hood picked apples in the garden. The pie came out great! The mother looked at him and said:

- Little Red Riding Hood, go visit your grandmother. I will put a piece of cake and a bottle of milk in your basket, you will take it to her.

Little Red Riding Hood was delighted, immediately got ready and went to her grandmother, who lived on the other side of the forest.

The mother went out onto the porch to see the girl off and began to admonish her:

- With strangers, daughter, do not talk, do not turn off the road.

“Don’t worry,” said Little Red Riding Hood, said goodbye to her mother and went through the forest to the house where her grandmother lived.

Little Red Riding Hood walked along the road, walked, but suddenly stopped and thought: “What beautiful flowers grow here, and I don’t even look around, how loudly the birds sing, but I don’t seem to hear! How nice it is here in the forest!”

Indeed, the sun's rays made their way through the trees, beautiful flowers were fragrant in the clearings, over which butterflies fluttered.

And Little Red Riding Hood decided:

“I’ll bring Grandma along with the cake also a bouquet of flowers. She will probably be pleased. It’s still early, I’ll always have time for her.”

And she turned off the road straight into the thicket and began to pick flowers. Pick a flower and think:

A girl is walking through the forest, picking flowers, singing a song, and suddenly a furious wolf meets her.

And Little Red Riding Hood was not afraid of him at all.

- Hello, Little Red Riding Hood! - said the wolf. Where are you going so early?

- To Grandma.

- What do you have in your basket?

- A bottle of milk and a pie, my mother and I baked it to please my grandmother. She is sick and weak, let her get better.

- Little Red Riding Hood, where does your grandmother live?

“Good luck to you, Little Red Riding Hood,” muttered the wolf, and thought to himself: “Good girl, a tidbit would be for me; tastier, perhaps, than the old woman; but in order to capture both, it is necessary to lead the matter cunningly.

And he rushed with all his might by the shortest road to his grandmother's house.

Little Red Riding Hood is walking through the forest, not in a hurry, but Gray wolf already knocking on my grandmother's door.

- Who's there?

“It’s me, Little Red Riding Hood, who brought you a cake and a bottle of milk, open it for me,” the wolf answered in a thin voice.

“Press the latch,” Grandma shouted, “I am very weak, I can’t get up.”

The wolf pressed the latch, the door opened, and without saying a word, he went straight to the grandmother's bed and swallowed the old woman.

Then the wolf put on her dress, cap, lay down in bed and pulled the curtains.

And Little Red Riding Hood was picking all the flowers, and when she had already collected so many of them that she could no longer bear, she remembered her grandmother and went to her.

Little Red Riding Hood came up to the grandmother's house, and the door was open. She was surprised, went inside and shouted:

Good morning! “But there was no answer.

Then she went up to the bed, parted the curtains, and saw that her grandmother was lying, the cap was pulled over her very face, and she looked strange.

- Oh, grandmother, why do you have such big ears? asked Little Red Riding Hood.

- To hear you better!

- Oh, grandmother, what big eyes you have!

- It's better to see you!

- Oh, grandmother, why do you have such big hands?

- To make it easier to hug you.

- Oh, grandmother, what a big mouth you have!

"It's to make it easier to swallow you!"

The wolf said this, jumped out of bed - and swallowed poor Little Red Riding Hood.

The wolf ate and lay down again in bed, fell asleep and began to snore loudly, very loudly.

A hunter walked by.

He heard some strange sounds coming from the house and became alert: it cannot be that the old woman was snoring so loudly!

He crept up to the window, looked inside - and there the wolf lies in the bed.

- There you are, gray robber! - he said. “I have been looking for you for a long time.

The hunter wanted to shoot the wolf first, but changed his mind. Suddenly he ate his grandmother, and she can still be saved.

The hunter then took the scissors and ripped open the belly of the sleeping wolf. Little Red Riding Hood and Grandmother got out of there - both alive and unharmed.

And all three were very, very happy. The hunter removed the skin from the wolf and carried it home. Grandmother ate a cake, drank the milk that Little Red Riding Hood brought her, and began to get better and gain strength.

Little Red Riding Hood realized that you should always obey your elders and never turn off the road in the forest.
