Write a two-page response (double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font), answering the following questions* (Use the Folk and Fairy Tales text and Little Red Hood to answer):

  • Examine the illustrations for the tale "Little Red Riding Hood" (Fig 1-4 in the "Illustrations" chapter in Folk and Fairy Tales). What insights do they provide? To what extent does the character of the (a) girl and (b) wolf differ from version to version?
  • Examine the nature of the grandmother's role in the different textual versions.
  • There is a point in most versions of this story where the girl becomes aware that something is amiss. Identify this moment in the different versions, examining the girls' various responses.

*Questions adapted from Hallett, M. & Karasek, B. (Eds.). (2008). Folk & fairy tales (4th ed.). Peterborough, ON: Broadview Press.

 

By the way, I don't have Folk & fairy tales (4th ed.). It will be great if you can find this book in local library. Thank you
