    Little Red Cap

    By Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm


    Once upon a time there was a dear little girl who was loved by everyone who looked
    at her, but most of all by her grandmother, and there was nothing that she would not have
    given to the child. Once she gave her a little cap of red velvet, which suited her so well that
    she would never wear anything else; so she was always called Little Red- Cap.
    One day her mother said to her: Come, Little Red-Cap, here is a piece of cake and a
    bottle of wine; take them to your grandmother, she is ill and weak, and they will do her good.
    Set out before it gets hot, and when you are going, walk nicely and quietly and do not run off
    the path, or you may fall and break the bottle, and then your grandmother will get nothing;
    and when you go into her room, dont forget to say, Good morning, and dont peep into
    every corner before you do it.
    Little Red Cap promised to obey her mother. The grandmother lived out in the woods,
    a half hour from the village. When Little Red Cap entered the woods a wolf came up to her.
    She did not know what a wicked animal he was, and was not afraid of him.
    "Good day to you, Little Red Cap."
    "Thank you, wolf."
    "Where are you going so early, Little Red Cap?"
    "To grandmother's."
    "And what are you carrying under your apron?"
    "Grandmother is sick and weak, and I am taking her some cake and wine. We baked
    yesterday, and they should give her strength."
    "Little Red Cap, just where does your grandmother live?"
    "Her house is a good quarter hour from here in the woods, under the three large oak trees.
    There's a hedge of hazel bushes there. You must know the place," said Little Red Cap.
    The wolf thought to himself, "Now there is a tasty bite for me. Just how are you going
    to catch her?" Then he said, "Listen, Little Red Cap, haven't you seen the beautiful flowers

    that are blossoming in the woods? Why don't you go and take a look? And I don't believe you
    can hear how beautifully the birds are singing. You are walking along as though you were on
    your way to school in the village. It is very beautiful in the woods."
    Little Red Cap opened her eyes and saw the sunlight breaking through the trees and
    how the ground was covered with beautiful flowers. She thought, "If a take a bouquet to
    grandmother, she will be very pleased. Anyway, it is still early, and I'll be home on time."
    And she ran off into the woods looking for flowers. Each time she picked one she thought
    that she could see an even more beautiful one a little way off, and she ran after it, going
    further and further into the woods. But the wolf ran straight to the grandmother's house and
    knocked on the door.
    "Who's there?""Little Red Cap. I'm bringing you some cake and wine. Open the door for me."
    "Just press the latch," called out the grandmother. "I'm too weak to get up."
    The wolf pressed the latch, and the door opened. He stepped inside, went straight to
    the grandmother's bed, and ate her up. Then he took her clothes, put them on, and put her cap
    on his head. He got into her bed and pulled the curtains shut.
    Little Red Cap had run after flowers, and did not continue on her way to
    grandmother's until she had gathered all that she could carry. When she arrived, she found, to
    her surprise, that the door was open. She walked into the parlor, and everything looked so
    strange that she thought, "Oh, my God, why am I so afraid? I usually like it at
    grandmother's." Then she went to the bed and pulled back the curtains. Grandmother was
    lying there with her cap pulled down over her face and looking very strange.
    "Oh, grandmother, what big ears you have!"
    "All the better to hear you with."
    "Oh, grandmother, wht big eyes you have!"
    "All the better to see you with."
    "Oh, grandmother, what big hands you have!"
    "All the better to grab you with!"
    "Oh, grandmother, what a horribly big mouth you have!"

    "All the better to eat you with!" And with that he jumped out of bed, jumped on top of poor
    Little Red Cap, and ate her up. As soon as the wolf had finished this tasty bite, he climbed
    back into bed, fell asleep, and began to snore very loudly.
    A huntsman was just passing by. He thought it strange that the old woman was
    snoring so loudly, so he decided to take a look. He stepped inside, and in the bed there lay the
    wolf that he had been hunting for such a long time. "He has eaten the grandmother, but
    perhaps she still can be saved. I won't shoot him," thought the huntsman. So he took a pair of
    scissors and cut open his belly.
    He had cut only a few strokes when he saw the red cap shining through. He cut a little
    more, and the girl jumped out and cried, "Oh, I was so frightened! It was so dark inside the
    wolf's body!"
    And then the grandmother came out alive as well. Then Little Red Cap fetched some
    large heavy stones. They filled the wolf's body with them, and when he woke up and tried to
    run away, the stones were so heavy that he fell down dead.
    The three of them were happy. The huntsman took the wolf's pelt. The grandmother
    ate the cake and drank the wine that Little Red Cap had brought. And Little Red Cap thought
    to herself, "As long as I live, I will never leave the path and run off into the woods by myself
    if mother tells me not to."
    They also tell how Little Red Cap was taking some baked things to her grandmother
    another time, when another wolf spoke to her and wanted her to leave the path. But Little Red
    Cap took care and went straight to grandmother's. She told her that she had seen the wolf, and
    that he had wished her a good day, but had stared at her in a wicked manner. "If we hadn't
    been on a public road, he would have eaten me up," she said.
    "Come," said the grandmother. "Let's lock the door, so he can't get in."
    Soon afterward the wolf knocked on the door and called out, "Open up, grandmother.
    It's Little Red Cap, and I'm bringing you some baked things."
    They remained silent, and did not open the door. The wicked one walked around the
    house several times, and finally jumped onto the roof. He wanted to wait until Little Red Cap
    went home that evening, then follow her and eat her up in the darkness. But the grandmother
    saw what he was up to. There was a large stone trough in front of the house.

    "Fetch a bucket, Little Red Cap," she said. "Yesterday I cooked some sausage. Carry the
    water that I boiled them with to the trough." Little Red Cap carried water until the large, large
    trough was clear full. The smell of sausage arose into the wolf's nose. He sniffed and looked
    down, stretching his neck so long that he could no longer hold himself, and he began to slide.
    He slid off the roof, fell into the trough, and drowned. And Little Red Cap returned home
    happily and safely.
