1 | Introduction

Once upon a time, there was a sweet little girl who was loved by everyone who looked at her, but most of all by her grandmother, who would have given her anything. Once, the grandmother gave her a little cap of red velvet, which suited her so well that she never wore anything else; thus she was always called “Little Red Riding Hood.”

2 | Mother's Instructions

One day, her mother said to her, “Come, Little Red Riding Hood, here is a piece of cake and a bottle of wine. Take them to your grandmother; she is ill and weak, and these will do her good. Set out before it gets too hot, and when you go, walk nicely and quietly. Do not stray from the path, or you may fall and break the bottle, and then your grandmother will get nothing. When you arrive, do not forget to say, 'Good morning,' and do not peer into every corner before greeting her.”
“I will take great care,” said Little Red Riding Hood to her mother, and she set off.

3 | where can I find the wolf?

The wolf is not present yet in our story. Little Red Riding Hood has just left her home with the basket of goodies for her grandmother. The wolf typically appears when Little Red Riding Hood enters the woods on her way to her grandmother's house. If you'd like to encounter the wolf, you should consider heading into the forest.

4 | let's go there

As Little Red Riding Hood enters the woods, the sunlight filters through the dense canopy of leaves. The path winds between tall trees, and she can hear birds singing in the distance. The forest is alive with the rustle of small animals and the gentle breeze through the branches.

Suddenly, she hears a twig snap nearby. Something, or someone, seems to be approaching…

5 | wait and see

Little Red Riding Hood pauses on the path, her curiosity piqued by the sound. She looks around, clutching her basket a bit tighter. The forest seems to grow quieter, as if holding its breath.

After a moment, a large, grey wolf emerges from behind a thick oak tree. His yellow eyes fix upon Little Red Riding Hood, and a sly grin spreads across his snout. He approaches her slowly, his tail swishing behind him.

“Good day, Little Red Riding Hood,” the wolf says in a surprisingly gentle voice.

6 | Little Red Riding Hood, taken aback by the wolf's polite greeting, nervously replies, "Good day, sir." She remembers her grandmother's warnings about talking to strangers, but the wolf's calm demeanor and soft voice make her wonder if perhaps he might be friendly. "Are you going to visit someone in this big forest?" she asks, trying to mask her anxiety with curiosity. The wolf nods, his grin widening. "Indeed, I am on my way to visit an old friend," he responds, his eyes never leaving hers. "But I notice you are all alone. This forest can be very dangerous. Would you like some company on your way to your grandmother's house?" His offer sounds genuine, and Little Red Riding Hood contemplates whether it would be safer to accept his company or to continue alone.

The wolf's tail swishes slowly as he waits for her answer. The forest seems unusually quiet now, save for the distant call of a crow. Sunlight catches the wolf's fur, and despite his polite demeanor, there's something unsettling about the way his yellow eyes keep darting to her basket.
