Ladle Rat Rotten Hut

A story of a wicket woof and a ladle gull.

Enjoy the entertaining story written by French professor Howard Chase in the 1940s. It's charm lies in its use of similar-sounding words (all of them legitimate words in themselves) substituting for words in the original folk tale of 'Little Red Riding Hood.' Chase wrote the story to demonstrate that the intonation of spoken English is almost as important to the meaning as the words themselves.
