An adapted version of the fairytale: the Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf

… within the framework of the Comenius partnership ‘the art is in our hands’

24th Primary school of Thessaloniki

Little Red Riding Hood is walking in the forest. She is carrying a suitcase with paintings of the project “The

art is in our hands”.

The little girl meets the wolf and she tells him where she isgoing. The wolf goes ahead of her and eats her Granny and then

waits forLittle Red Riding Hood to come.

When the wolf is ready to eat her, the Red riding hood opens her magic suitcase and suddenly...

The granny safe and sound…

harlequins, children with pigeons,

Musicians,

people and animals crying out for peace,

butterflies,

a wounded angel,

a turtle trainer with his turtles,

faces of fruit,

the dreams of a child,

…come out of the suitcase, flying, singing, dancing. So many colours, so many feelings so many messages...

The wolf is dizzy. It was all a dream! A terrible nightmare!

The art is in our hands! says Riding Hood.

And here is a painting the Riding Hood made of the wolf and his family.

They lived happily ever after...and Riding Hood with all the children fight for peace, for the protection of animals, for better environment, for a better world!
