Cómo recibió su nombre Caperucita Roja

How Red-Cap got her name

Spanish

Había una vez una niña dulce a la que todos querían, aunque nadie tanto como su abuela, que estaba dispuesta a darle cualquier cosa. En una ocasión le regaló una caperuza de terciopelo rojo que le quedaba tan bien que la niña ya no quiso ponerse ninguna otra. De ahí que todos empezaran a llamarla Caperucita Roja.

English translation

Once upon a time, there was a sweet little girl whom everyone loved, though no one loved her as much as her grandmother did. Her grandmother was willing to give her anything. One day, she gave her a red velvet hood that suited her so well that the girl never wanted to wear any other. That was why everyone began calling her Little Red Riding Hood.
