このストーリーについて
Little Red Riding Hood is a European folk tale, first printed by Charles Perrault in 1697 and retold by the Brothers Grimm as Little Red Cap in 1812, where a huntsman saves the day. This bedtime version keeps the famous what-big-eyes exchange but lets Grandmother hide in the wardrobe, so nobody gets swallowed.
お話の教え
Listen to the people who love you, and be careful with strangers, however friendly they seem. Red makes a mistake, owns it, and learns from it without anyone getting hurt.
対象
Ages 3–8
読み聞かせのコツ
- Pause before each what-big line and let your child say the wolf's answer.
- Make the wolf silly rather than scary: a squeaky granny voice gets giggles.
- Afterwards, ask what Red should do next time a stranger stops her.
よくある質問
- What is the moral of Little Red Riding Hood?
- Stay on the path you were told to take and don't trust strangers just because they are polite. Charming words can hide bad intentions.
- Who wrote Little Red Riding Hood?
- It is an old folk tale. Charles Perrault published the first famous version in France in 1697, and the Brothers Grimm published Little Red Cap in 1812, adding the huntsman's rescue.
- Is Little Red Riding Hood too scary for young children?
- Older versions have the wolf eat Grandmother. In this retelling she hides in the wardrobe and the wolf runs off with honey on his nose, so it suits children as young as three.
