“Unjust Deception could lead to Life greatest Lesson”

Plot/Summary
In the tale "Little Red Riding Hood" there is a young beautiful girl whose mother sends her
with a basket of goods to her ill grandmother the next village over. Her grandmother is the one
who gave her the red velvet hood that became her favorite and that is the reason why she is
being called Little Red Riding Hood, but this journey requires that the young girl to enter the
woods, it is because her grandmother lives in there alone. When the girl first enters the woods,
she encounters a starving wolf that is on the verge of eating her then and then but holds off
because of some nearby woodcutters. Instead, she replies she is heading to her grandmother's
place when he asks her where she is going. She replies that it is the first house in the village
when he asks about how far it is. The wolf then started to deceived her by telling her that he is
also going to her grandmother’s house and tell her to take the other route and they will see if
who can go there first, the wolf rushes to the grandmother's house in order to ensure he is there
first, while Little Red Riding Hood takes her time, gathering nuts and pursuing butterflies along
the route. When he gets there, he impersonates the young girl and convinces the grandma to let
him enter her house. He eats her when he gets inside. Then, he puts on her clothes and gets into
bed to wait for the young girl. Following what happened Little Red Riding Hood finally get to
her grandmother’s house and call her, the wolf answers and tell her to enter the house. She has
been told to put the cake and butter away and get into bed with him. However, Little Red Riding

the wolf replies by saying “all the better to eat you with” and finally eat the young beautiful
girl together with her grandmother. After they have been eaten by the wolf, he slept and snore
loudly that a huntsman saw and did not believe that the agedly grandmother can snore that

stomach and after that the wolf became awake and tried to run after seeing the huntsman and
since the stone were very heavy the wolf fell and died. After what happened Little Red Riding
Hood became always on guard that even she encountered wolf in the woods she knows what
to do.

Analysis (Symbolism/Character)

This childhood story really has a big impact to the life of the children back in my days, It is a
story that pertains to children being easily misled by others, especially if the person who did it
used to be sly and manipulative. I gave this analysis the term "Unjust Deception" because I
thought that deceiving a little child or an elderly woman was an act of wrongdoing. This is
because young people are more likely to trust whomever they meet, whereas older people have
a harder time understanding what is going on and may have trouble figuring out who they are
conversing with. And the term “Life greatest lesson” since I believed that it will mark on the
memories of everyone who can experience it. The Red Velvet Hood which Little red riding
hood’s grandmother gave her symbolizes favoritism and unconditional love of a grandmother.
And for me, the mother of Little Red Riding Hood symbolizes as the instrument that will help
her grow as an individual. The wolf symbolizes as manipulative person that you can encounter
wherever you are. The huntsman symbolizes as the genuine person you can encounter in the
darkest phase of your life.

Conclusion

To sum up, Little Red Riding Hood's tale is about what might always occur in real life. It is a
tough and endearing tale in which the little child serves as the protagonist. Through all the kids
and parents out there, it acts as a lesson in life, and also there are many manipulative people
out there who are willing to use unjust deception every time, but there are also many sincere
and kind people who will come to help you when things are at their worst. This shows that
things can happen even when we do not see them coming. It merely implies that good always
triumphs over evil.
