Okay class, let's start,
Today I'm going to read you
Little Red Riding Hood.
No, I can't read you Cinderella Susan,
It's Lisa's turn to pick today
and she chose Little Red Riding Hood.
Okay, "Once upon a time,
There lived a girl called Little Red Riding Hood.."
No, she didn't watch the Tweenies Andrew,
They didn't have television then.
Okay, "..she lived with her mother in a little cottage,
And often visited her grandmother
Who lived on the other side of the forest.."
I don't know why she lived there Leanne,
Perhaps she liked it there.
Why? I don't know I'm afraid.
"..One day, she heard that her grandmother
Was ill, so she gathered some food and
Went to visit her.." No Peter, I don't
think that she had chicken pox.
Now, let's hush a little, then maybe
we'd finish this before hometime.
"But right in the middle of the forest
Lived a big bad wolf waiting to eat someone.."
No Betty, the wolf will not eat you!
It's just a story,
Just a story.
"Little Red Riding Hood came unaware
Of what's to happen.."
Susan, why are you crying? No! The wolf
Won't eat her! Well, he wants to, yes,
But he won't.
How would I know? Well I've read it before,
I'm afraid I can't tell you the ending
Because...
Oh look! Hometime! Goodbye children!
