The New Fairy Tales (Revised) - Lil' Red Ridin' Hoodie

Copyright © 2011 of James Pettis, III

Lil' Red Ridin' Hoodie is the first fairy tale in the revised series, The New Fairy Tales. This is the same as the story Lil' Red Ridin Hoodie from my original series The New Fairy Tales. It is based on the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood by Charles Perrault in 1695. Lil' Red is based off of two characters in the original story, he is "Little Red Riding Hood" and "the Hunter" combined and the story is also more spiritual and supernatural than the original story.

Dr. Red is a scientist that lives in Glory Village with her son Christopher "Lil' Red" Red. Dr. Red is famous in the village because she creates medicines and vaccines to heal the villagers so no one will die from any sicknesses. Lil' Red delivers the medicines to the villagers making the Red family loved deeply by the villagers because of their good deeds. Five evil wolves Tnaas, Natas, Evild, Crulfie, and Veild (the leader of the wolves) try to stop Lil' Red from reaching his destination. But with his supernatural powers he fights them off and prevails. Then, Lil' Red's own grandmother gets really sick, giving the wolves the perfect opportunity to create distractions and prevent Lil' Red from saving her. Lil' Red must get prepared and stop the wolves once and for all.

This is one of my favorite fairy tales and I will enjoy writing it. Stay tuned for more info about Lil' Red Ridin' Hoodie.
