The wolf got to the dwelling 1 of the grandmother first, and knocked at the door. "Who is there?" said a voice in the house. "It is your granddaughter, Red Riding Hood 2," said the wolf, speaking like the little girl as well as he could. "I have brought you some cheesecakes, and a little pot of butter, that mamma has sent you." The good old woman, who was ill in bed, called out, "Pull the bobbin, and the latch 3 will go up." The wolf pulled the bobbin, and the door went open. The wolf then jumped upon the poor old grandmother, tied her up in a sheet and hid her in the closet. The wolf then shut the door, and laid himself down in the bed, and waited for Little Red Riding Hood, who very soon after reached the house. Tap! tap! "Who is there?" cried he. She was at first a little afraid at hearing the gruff voice of the wolf, but she thought that perhaps her grandmother had caught a cold, so she answered: "It is your grandchild, Little Red Riding Hood. Mamma has sent you some cheesecakes, and a little pot of butter." The wolf cried out in a softer voice, "Pull the bobbin, and the latch will go up." Little Red Riding Hood pulled the bobbin, and the door went open. When she came into the room, the wolf hid himself under the bedclothes, and said to her, trying all he could to speak in a feeble voice: "Put the basket on the stool, my dear, and take off your cloak, and come closer." Little Red Riding Hood, who always did as she was told, straightaway, removed her cloak, and stepped toward the bed. But she thought it strange to see how her grandmother looked in her nightclothes, so she said to her: "Dear me, grandmamma, what great arms you have got!" "They are so much the better to hug you, my child," replied the wolf. "But grandmamma," said the little girl, "what big ears you have got!" "They are so much the better to hear you, my child," replied the wolf. "But then, grandmamma, what great eyes you have got!" said the little girl. "They are so much the better to see you, my child," replied the wolf. "And grandmamma, what great teeth you have!" said the little girl, who now began to be rather afraid. "They are to eat you up," said the wolf. When, just then, before the mean wolf could eat up Little Red Riding Hood, Grandma popped out of the closet and hit the mean wolf over his head with her cane 4, knocking him out cold.
