The original version of Little Red Riding Hood was written by Charles Perrault. In this version, the young girl and the grandmother are eaten by the wolf. The French-language versions, including those published in Canada, retained this tragic ending. In the English-language version, the one by the Brothers Grimm, the young girl and the grandmother are saved and the bad wolf is killed. This was the version used in English Canada. It is interesting to observe that the same fairy tale was essentially different for the children brought up in one or the other language.
