The True Story of Little Red Riding Hood

The True Story of Little Red Riding Hood

By Will the Wolf (aka Jessica)

Once upon a time there was a little girl and her name was Little Red Riding Hood, and I, the Wolf.  Now, I wanted to take the little girl’s place because I like to take walks. 

But, Little Red says, “NO!” She’s a trouble maker because she never listens to her mom.  Once her mom said, “Go give these cream puffs to Will the Wolf.” 

“Do I have to?” Little Red said.

Crossing her arms with anger, mom exclaimed, “Yes! Now don’t waste my time!”

I was in bed feeling sick that day with a stomach ache.  I was sneezing and coughing and I wasn’t expecting to see Little Red come to my house.

When Little Red Riding Hood got to my house she gave me the delicious cream puffs.  Yum! Yum!  I asked Little Red nicely, “Do you want some?”

“Ok, gimme!” and she grabbed the cream puffs from my hands and almost ran out the door with them!

I thought she was a mean little girl so maybe I should get her back.  “Now Little Red, don’t leave this house this minute with my cream puffs!” I yelled.  “Or else I’ll tell your mother!”

“I don’t care!” Little Red yelled right back to me.

“Fine, use manners or else I won’t share my cream puffs,” I said in a weak voice, feeling sick again.

Little Red opened the door and almost ran out with my cream puffs but I grabbed her by the hood.

The gorilla police came and saw me grabbing Little Red by the hood and arrested me and put me into jail.  And THAT’S how I got to be the Big Bad Wolf.

The True Story of Little Red Riding Hood

By Aaron

My name is Aaron Wolf and I don’t think you know this, but that Little Red Riding Hood book is FAKE! This is the real story of Little Red Riding Hood.

Once upon a time there was a friendly girl. She was making her granny a cake but she needed half a cup of sugar. So she went in the woods to go to her grandma’s house. “Grandma, what big teeth you have!” said Little Red Riding Hood. “Grandma, what a big nose you have!” said Little Red Riding Hood. “Thank you,” said granny in a deep voice.

Granny started to get out of bed and headed towards the bathroom. But Little Red Riding Hood noticed her long claws on her feet and called for help. The police showed up and arrested the Wolf for breaking into Grandma’s house. And Little Red Riding Hood lived happily ever after.

The REAL Story of Little Red Rhyming Hood

The REAL Story of Little Red Rhyming Hood

By Hannah

One day Little Red Rhyming Hood’s mother said, “Bring these cookies to my friend Wolfey.”

“Do I HAVE to?” said Little Red Rhyming Hood.

“Yes!”

“Ok, fine.”

So Little Red Rhyming Hood went to Wolfey’s house. Wolfey was a sweet fellow who really liked children. Inside his house he had dessert pictures all over and furniture that looked like candy.

“Hi Wolfey, you’d better appreciate these cookies… I wasted all of my time just walking over here for you,” Little Red Rhyming Hood snapped.

“Well thank you Sweetie Pie! How sweet of you, darling. How is your mama?” Wolfey responded.

“Who cares?” Little Red Rhyming Hood said angrily.

“Boy, you have a bad attitude.”

“Take your cookies or else I will eat them up!”

Wolfey quietly took the cookies.

“I’m going home,” Little Red Rhyming Hood said.

“Don’t go home honey! Don’t leave me!” answered the wolf.

“Get out of my way!” replied Little Red Rhyming Hood.

“But I’m lonely…” Wolfey started to say, but Little Red Rhyming Hood was already out the door and on her way home.

“Mom, I hate your boyfriend, Mr. Wolfey. It’s bizarre- it’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard!”

“Are you done?” Little Red Rhyming Hood’s mom asked.

“Yes.”

“Then go to your room NOW!” her mom furiously shouted.

So Little Red Rhyming Hood went to her room, but she screamed, “I bet if Cinderella’s daughter got in trouble she wouldn’t go to her room!”

Little Red Rhyming Hood’s mother thought, “I’m going to call Wolfey- I think he’ll know someone to straighten her out.”

“Be right there Honey!” Wolfey replied. “By the way, your daughter is a brat.”

Wolfey called his bro, the Big Bad Wolf, and soon they were all at Little Red Rhyming Hood’s house.

“Where is she?”

“In her room,” mama answered annoyingly.

The Big Bad Wolf picked Little Red Rhyming Hood up to scare her and huffed and puffed and blew all of her toys away.

And from that day on, Little Red Rhyming Hood obeyed her mother and always behaved. I hope you learned a lesson- Be kind and never be fresh… or else!

Frankie the Wolf

Frankie The Wolf

By Samantha

    Hi, I’m…

“Little Red, Little Red, can you make me a cup of tea? And don’t forget the honey, honey!” asked Nana.

“Yeah, that one never gets old,” I thought. 

“Coming Nana, I just need to wash my hands,” I lied. 

    I’m sorry, as I was saying… I’m an intern for Frankie, the Big Bad Wolf.  I work in the fashion industry.  All of the clothes he knits and sells he hides poison on them.

    So when the little pigs go to Dress “Barn,” they buy the clothing and die.  Then, my boss, the Wolf, captures them and eats them.  That’s his evil scam.

    But, I’m just a little intern.  It ended up that Nana heard about the scam and the police came to arrest Frankie the Wolf for the rest of the century. 

    But Frankie’s friends still visit him in jail… and bring him pork.

The True Story of the Three Little Pigs

The True Story of the Three Little Pigs

by Wolf (a.k.a Christiana)

Hi, I’m Wolf. Everybody knows the story of the Three Little Pigs, right? Well guess what? You’re wrong! So I’m going to tell you the truth…

Once upon a time I, the Wolf, got up from my bed and I was hungry. I wanted to have something to eat for breakfast. I wanted over-easy eggs. But, I forgot there were no eggs. My cousin came over and ate all of the eggs.

So, I went to my neighbor’s house- the house of the Three Little Pigs. They were selling eggs for twenty-five dollars. “Twenty five dollars? That’s a rip-off!”

Oh, I know what you’re thinking, I’m not buying eggs from them, no, no no. Alright, alright, you got my attention. But don’t rush me! It’s my story and I need eggs!

The pig said, “Are you here to get stuff to chop down our house?”

“No,” I said. “I just wanted to buy some eggs so I can make an over-easy egg for breakfast,” I said.

It was then I felt a sneeze about to happen. “ACHOO!!!” The pile of eggs knocked down and the goat newspaper reporter came and changed everything- the whole story!

They made me the Big Bad Wolf who blew down and broke all of the eggs (and the house) And that’s the true story.
