So the wolf ran to the village again and
went to the baker's where he stole
some flour. He covered his foot in
it and went straight back and
knocked on the little goat's
door. It's Mummy here let me in' he said
And since he now had a soft gentle voice and a
white foot the little goats opened the door.
When they saw it was the wolf they shrieked with terror and
ran away to try and hide.
The first hid under the bed, the
second under the table, the
third behind the curtains, the
fourth in the grandfather clock,
the fifth in the bath, the sixth
behind the door and the seventh
under a chest of drawers. But the
wolf found them and ate
them up, one after the other. All except the one who was
hidden in the grand father clock.
A little later the nanny-goat came
home with her shopping.
When she saw the door open and the house all topsy-turvy she
cried. What ever has been going on
? Little goats where are
you? Answer me at once!''
The little goat was hidden in the
grandfather clock came
out and told her what had happened.
Don't worry said his mother. I saw
the wolf sleeping near
the river. We'll go and rescue your brothers and sisters. Run
and fetch my sewing basket my
scissors some stout thread
and a needle.
The little goat hurried off to
fetch them . Them the
nanny-goat and the little goat
set off for the river bank.
They found the greedy wolf lying
by the river in the
sunshine. As he snored peacefully, the nanny-goat
careful snipped open his stomach
with her scissors. Out
jumped the six little goats.
Run and collect some rocks from
the river. whispered the
nanny-goat and they watched
quietly as she popped them into
the wolf empty stomach.
Then she sewed up the wolf tummy
and left him there fast asleep.
When the wolf a woke he felt very
thirsty. I shouldn't have
eaten all those little goats
at once he thought and went to
drink from the river. But
his stomach was so heavy that he could
hardly walk and he staggered to
the water's edge. As he
bent over to drink, the weight of the stones pulled the
wolf into the water and down down
to the river bed. And no
one saw that greedy wolf
ever again! |
