English Original
Once upon a time, a little girl lived with her parents in a cottage at the edge of a forest. Her father was a woodcutter. In the middle of the forest lived her grandmother, who loved her dearly. One day, the grandmother made the girl a beautiful red cloak with a matching hood. The girl loved it so much she wore it always, earning her the name Little Red Riding Hood.
One day, Red Riding Hood's mother asked her to take a basket with cake and butter to her sick grandmother. On the path through the forest, she met a wolf. The wolf, pretending to be friendly, learned where she was going. He then tricked her, suggesting a race to her grandmother's house, and ran ahead using secret shortcuts.
The wolf reached the cottage first. He pretended to be Red Riding Hood, tricked the grandmother into letting him in, and gobbled her up. He then put on her nightclothes and got into bed.
When Red Riding Hood arrived, she noticed something strange about her "grandmother."
"Grandmother, what big eyes you have!"
"All the better to see you with, my dear."
"Grandmother, what big teeth you have!"
"All the better to EAT you with!"
The wolf then jumped out of bed. Red Riding Hood screamed and ran outside, with the wolf chasing her. Her father, the woodcutter, heard her screams. He rushed over with his axe, saved his daughter, and killed the wolf with one blow. To their surprise, the grandmother was found safe inside the wolf! They all returned to the cottage, shared the cake, and lived happily ever after, with Red Riding Hood promising never to walk in the forest alone again.
中文翻译
从前，有个小女孩和父母住在森林边的小屋里。她的父亲是樵夫。森林深处住着她慈爱的外婆。一天，外婆给小女孩做了一件带兜帽的漂亮红斗篷。小女孩非常喜欢，总是穿着它，因此大家都叫她“小红帽”。
一天，小红帽的妈妈让她带一篮蛋糕和黄油去看望生病的外婆。在穿过森林的小路上，她遇到了一只狼。狼假装友好，套出了她的目的地。它骗小红帽说要比赛看谁先到外婆家，然后利用捷径抢先跑了。
狼先到了小屋。它假装是小红帽，骗外婆开了门，一口把外婆吞了下去。接着，它穿上外婆的睡衣，躺到了床上。
小红帽到来后，觉得“外婆”有些奇怪。
“外婆，你的眼睛怎么这么大？”
“为了更好地看清你呀，亲爱的。”
“外婆，你的牙齿怎么这么大？”
“为了更好地吃掉你！”
狼说完便跳下床。小红帽尖叫着逃出门外，狼紧追不舍。她的樵夫父亲听到了呼救声。他提着斧头冲过来，救下女儿，一斧头砍死了狼。令人惊喜的是，外婆从狼肚子里安然无恙地出来了！他们回到小屋，分享了蛋糕，从此幸福地生活在一起。小红帽也保证再也不独自在森林里行走了。
