How Red-Cap got her name

Spanish

Había una vez una niña a la que todos querían mucho. Su abuela la quería más que nadie y siempre deseaba darle cosas. Un día le regaló una caperuza roja, una especie de gorro de terciopelo. Le quedaba tan bien que la niña no quería usar otra. Desde entonces, todos la llamaban Caperucita Roja.

English translation

Once upon a time, there was a girl whom everyone loved very much. Her grandmother loved her more than anyone and always wanted to give her things. One day, she gave her a red hood, a kind of velvet cap. It suited her so well that she didn’t want to wear anything else. From then on, everyone called her Little Red Riding Hood.
