LRRH’s mother asked her to go to her grandma’s cottage to bring her a basket of goodies.
On the way, she met the wolf who asked her where she was going. She replied that she was going to her grandma’s cottage. He thought (that) this was very interesting.
When LLRH arrived at the cottage she called Grandma but no one replied/ she didn’t reply. She thought it was weird.
LR asked her grandma if she was okay because she looked different. The wolf asked her to come closer. Then LR asked her about her big ears. The wolf replied that it was the better hear her.
Then the little girl asked why the wolf had such big teeth and the wolf exclaimed that it was to better eat her!!!
Finally the woodcutter arrived and asked the wolf what he was doing there. The wolf didn’t answer = said nothing. So the woodcutters told him to go away and never come back!
I am going → I was going
You are going → You were going
She is going → She was going
We are going → We were going
They are going → they were going
