the wolf and the sevan kids
There was once upon a time an old goat who had seven little kids, and loved them with all the love of a mother for her children. One day she wanted to go into the forest and fetch some food. So she called all seven to her and said, "Dear children, I have to go into the forest, be on your guard against the wolf, if he comes in, he will devour you all - skin, hair, and everything. The wretch often disguises himself, but you will know him at once by his rough voice and his black feet."
The kids said, "Dear mother, we will take good care of ourselves, you may go away without any anxiety." Then the old one bleated, and went on her way with an easy mind.
It was not long before some one knocked at the house-door and called, "Open the door, dear children, your mother is here, and has brought something back with her for each of you." But the little kids knew that it was the wolf, by the rough voice.
"We will not open the door," cried they, "you are not our mother. She has a soft, pleasant voice, but your voice is rough, you are the wolf."
Then the wolf went away to a shopkeeper and bought himself a great lump of chalk, ate this and made his voice soft with it. The he came back, knocked at the door of the house, and called, "Open the door, dear children, your mother is here and has brought something back with her for each of you."
But the wolf had laid his black paws against the window, and the children saw them and cried, "We will not open the door, our mother has not black feet like you, you are the wolf."
Then the wolf ran to a baker and said, "I have hurt my feet, rub some dough over them for me. And when the baker had rubbed his feet over, he ran to the miller and said, "Strew some white meal over my feet for me." The miller thought to himself, the wolf wants to deceive someone, and refused, but the wolf said, "If you will not do it, I will devour you." Then the miller was afraid, and made his paws white for him.
So now the wretch went for the third time to the house-door, knocked at it and said, "Open the door for me, children, your dear little mother has come home, and has brought every one of you something back from the forest with her."
The little kids cried, "First show us your paws that we may know if you are our dear little mother."
Then he put his paws in through the window, and when the kids saw that they were white, they believed that all he said was true, and opened the door. But who should come in but the wolf. The kids were terrified and wanted to hide themselves. One sprang under the table, the second into the bed, the third into the stove, the fourth into the kitchen, the fifth into the cupboard, the sixth under the washing-bowl, and the seventh into the clock-case. But the wolf found them all, and used no great ceremony, one after the other he swallowed them down his throat. The youngest, who was in the clock-case, was the only one he did not find. When the wolf had satisfied his appetite he took himself off, laid himself down under a tree in the green meadow outside, and began to sleep.
Soon afterwards the old goat came home again from the forest. Ah, what a sight she saw there. The house-door stood wide open. The table, chairs, and benches were thrown down, the washing-bowl lay broken to pieces, and the quilts and pillows were pulled off the bed. She sought her children, but they were nowhere to be found. She called them one after another by name, but no one answered.
At last, when she came to the youngest, a soft voice cried, "Dear Mother, I am in the clock-case." She took the kid out, and it told her that the wolf had come and had eaten all the others. Then you may imagine how she wept over her poor children.
At length in her grief she went out, and the youngest kid ran with her. When they came to the meadow, there lay the wolf by the tree and snored so loud that the branches shook. She looked at him on every side and saw that something was moving and struggling in his gorged belly. Ah, heavens, she thought, is it possible that my poor children whom he has swallowed down for his supper, can be still alive?
Then the kid had to run home and fetch scissors, and a needle and thread and the goat cut open the monster's stomach, and hardly had she make one cut, than one little kid thrust its head out, and when she cut farther, all six sprang out one after another, and were all still alive, and had suffered no injury whatever, for in his greediness the monster had swallowed them down whole.
What rejoicing there was! They embraced their dear mother, and jumped like a sailor at his wedding. The mother, however, said, "Now go and look for some big stones, and we will fill the wicked beast's stomach with them while he is still asleep." Then the seven kids dragged the stones thither with all speed, and put as many of them into his stomach as they could get in, and the mother sewed him up again in the greatest haste, so that he was not aware of anything and never once stirred.
When the wolf at length had had his fill of sleep, he got on his legs, and as the stones in his stomach made him very thirsty, he wanted to go to a well to drink. But when he began to walk and move about, the stones in his stomach knocked against each other and rattled. Then cried he,
"What rumbles and tumbles
Against my poor bones?
I thought 'twas six kids,
But it feels like big stones."
And when he got to the well and stooped over the water to drink, the heavy stones made him fall in, and he had to drown miserably.
When the seven kids saw that, they came running to the spot and cried aloud, "The wolf is dead, the wolf is dead," and danced for joy round about the well with their mother.

the wolf and the seven little kids
by Jordan Mascoe
Once upon a time there was an old goat mother with seven kids. One day she decided to make a trip to the forest, to fetch some food. So she called all seven of children and said, “I’m going into the forest. so be on guard against the wolf, if he comes he will devour you, skin, hair, everything. He likes to disguises himself but you will know him by his rough voice and black feet. The kids said, "We will take good care of ourselves mother. You may go away without any anxiety". Which, by being a stupid old goat, she went away with an easy mind
It was not long before the kids heard a knock at the door. “Open up," said a rough voice, "your mother is back from the forest and as brought all of you something.”
" Which the kids, being at least a little smarter thin their dimwit mother, cried, "Your not our mother, our mother has a high pitched annoying voice. We will not open the door. You’re the wolf!" The wolf swore under his breath and left.
He went to the town and bought a hammer. He went back to the old goats house and knocked once again. And the kids cried in their little annoying voices so much like their dear old mothers, "who's there??” The wolf winced at the high-pitched screams, but immediately slammed the hammer on his foot, and screeched, in a voice that matched the old goat’s perfectly, "ITS YOUR MOTHER, OPEN THE DOOR!!” The kids while smarter than their mother, were still goats and therefore stupid. So they opened the door. Which in the process let the wolf in. However the wolf was crying and rubbing his foot so he didn’t notice. It took the kids a full minute to notice it was the wolf, but when they did they took quick action, they ran around in circles like the stupid goats they were. As the wolf recovered he saw what was happening and also took quick action, he went in, closed the door, and locked it. And stared chasing and jumping on the poor kids. After about an hour of this, the wolf had finally eaten them all left to sleep under a tree.
Not soon after, the mother, who had been walking around outside the forest, because she had forgot what she was suppose to be doing, found her way home and went inside and looked around. After a minuet or two she noticed something was wrong, but she didn’t know what. So she did what all goats do at such times, and bleated stupidly at nothing. Which, after a few more minuets she figured out what was wrong. She was horrified. She was supposed to go to the forest to get some food. So she left again.
The next morning she got back from the forest and notest something still wrong. After a while she got it, all her kids were gone! So she ran in circles stupidly. After a little while she heard the cupboard bleating. That confused her, cupboards didn’t bleat do they? After thinking about that for a while she went to the cupboard and opened it to see if there was anything to eat. And the youngest kid fell out. He had been the most intelligent of all the kids and had hid instead of running around stupidly. He was his mothers favorite because his IQ matched that of a peanut, that meant he was the smartest goat in the family. So they had a snake. then the kid told his mother what had happened. Then they left to find the wolf, but forgot what they were doing half way there and ate some grass.
A long time later the kid remembered what they were supposed to be doing and told his mother, and they set out again. They found the wolf still sleeping under the tree, this wolf happened to be very lazy, because if you didn’t notice he’s been sleeping under that tree for about two days now. So the mother and kid went up to him and saw that his belly was moving, and the mother thought, "Maybe my babies are still alive!!” And got some scissors out of her pocket and stared to cut the wolf open. The wolf felt the old goat trying to cut his belly open and cried,"OOOUUUUUCCCHHHH!!!!!” And jumped away. The mother goat just stared amazed. "I thought you were asleep Mr. wolf?” she said. The wolf stared back in shock at her stupidity. Don’t you think I would feel you cutting my stomach open? He asked. The mother thought about that for a moment. As she was, the wolf ate her last kid and took another nap. When he woke up sometime later she was still there. So, he walked up and ate her too. The wolf live happily ever after
