name‚ doesn’t mean he’s a bad guy. In the story ‘Shrek’ he is funny and has lots of friends‚ in the Three Little Pigs‚ he hadn’t eaten in days‚ and in Little Red Riding Hood‚ he was just looking for a good laugh and a snack. The Big Bad Wolf in the story is actually the hero and this will be proven by looking just a little bit deeper. First‚ in Little Red Riding Hood‚ it was like Little Red was trying to get eaten. Her Mother said specifically not to dawdle or go off the path because something bad

The werewolf Stubbe Peeter had similar qualities when compared to the werewolf in The Werewolf’s Daughter and Little Red Riding Hood.

All In the story of “Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf”‚ Roald Dahl interprets the little girl as a gun-wielding murderer. While in most of the other interpretations of this story we’ve read this semester‚ she seemingly is just a young and naive little girl.

Arguably‚ the skates Dread wears signify she is probably riding the wolf‚ as though he is a “hobby horse” (Zipes 2).
