Little Green Riding Hood's basket

The Grade 2's story for the day was Little Green Riding Hood, a play based on the traditional children's story Little Red Riding Hood.

The play consists of a dialogue between a child and her grandfather who delights in giving his grand daughter ridiculous answers to her questions about Little Red Riding Hood.

I thought you may enjoy a short passage from Gianni Rodari's Little Green Riding Hood.

Grandpa: Once upon a time there was a little girl called Little Yellow Riding Hood.
Child: No! Red Riding Hood!
Grandpa: Oh yes, of course, Red Riding Hood.

Well, one day her mother called and said:
"Little Green Riding Hood-"
Child: Red!
Grandpa: Sorry! Red. "Now, my child, go to

Aunt Mary and take her these potatoes."
Child: No! It doesn't go like that! "Go to

Grandma and take her these cakes."
