Basically are all about perspective
Perspective is a mysterious thing ...sort of. It can be hard, but it's kinda interesting when you understand the theory.

Red Riding Hood
This is another version of "Red Riding Hood", and the end of story is so fun!!! So I did the scene of ending.
Little Red Riding Hood and
the Wolf
By Roald Dahl
As soon as Wolf began to feel
That he would like a decent meal,
He went and knocked on Grandma's door.
When Grandma opened it, she saw
The sharp white teeth, the horrid grin,
And Wolfie said, ``May I come in?''
Poor Grandmamma was terrified,
``He's going to eat me up!'' she cried.
And she was absolutely right.
He ate her up in one big bite.
But Grandmamma was small and tough,
And Wolfie wailed, ``That's not enough!
I
haven't yet begun to feel
That I have had a decent meal!''
He ran around the kitchen yelping,
``I've got to have a second helping!''
Then added with a frightful leer,
``I'm therefore going to wait right here
Till Little Miss Red Riding Hood
Comes home from walking in the wood.''
He quickly put on Grandma's clothes,
(Of course he hadn't eaten those).
He dressed himself in coat and hat.
He put on shoes, and after that
He even brushed and curled his hair,
Then sat himself in Grandma's chair.
In came the little girl in red.
She stopped. She stared. And then she said,
``What great big ears you have, Grandma.''
``All the better to hear you with,'' the Wolf replied.
``What great big eyes you have, Grandma.''
said Little Red Riding Hood.
``All the better to see you with,'' the Wolf replied.
He sat there watching her and smiled.
He thought, I'm going to eat this child.
Compared with her old Grandmamma
She's going to taste like caviar.
Then Little Red Riding Hood said, ``But Grandma,
what a lovely great big furry coat you have on.''
``That's wrong!'' cried Wolf. ``Have you forgot
To tell me what BIG TEETH I've got?
Ah well, no matter what you say,
I'm going to eat you anyway.''
The small girl smiles. One eyelid flickers.
She whips a pistol from her knickers.
She aims it at the creature's head
And bang bang bang, she shoots him dead.
A
few weeks later, in the wood,
I
came across Miss Riding Hood.
But what a change! No cloak of red,
No silly hood upon her head.
She said, ``Hello, and do please note
My lovely furry wolfskin coat.''
Roald Dahl, Revolting Rhymes
The King's Breakfast
The King’
Breakfast by A.A. Milne
The King
asked the Queen and the Queen asked the Dairymaid:
“Could we
have some butter for the Royal slice of bread?”
The Queen
asked the Dairymaid; the Dairymaid said: “Certainly!
I’ll go
and ask the cow now before she goes to bed.”
The
Dairymaid she curtsied, and went and told the Alderney:
“Don’t
forget the butter for the Royal slice of bread.”
The
Alderney said sleepily: “You’d better tell His Majesty
That many
people nowadays like marmalade instead.”
The
Dairymaid said “Fancy!” and went to Her Majesty.
She
curtsied to the Queen, and she turned a little red:
“Excuse
me, You Majesty, for taking of the liberty,
But
marmalade is tasty, if it’s very thickly spread.”
The Queen
said “Oh!” and went to His Majesty:
“Talking
of the butter for the Royal slice of bread --
Many
people think that marmalade is nicer;
Would you
like to try a little marmalade instead?”
The King
said “Bother!” and then he said “Oh, deary me!”
The King
sobbed “Oh, deary me!” and went back to bed.
“Nobody,”
he whimpered, “could call me a fussy man.
I only
want a little bit of butter for my bread.”
The Queen
said, “There, there!” and went to the Dairymaid.
The
Dairymaid said, “There, there!” and went to the shed.
The cow
said, “There, there! I didn’t really mean it;
Here’s
milk for his porringer and butter for his bread.”
The Queen
took the butter and brought it to His Majesty.
The King
said, “Butter, eh?” and bounced out of bed.
“Nobody,”
he said, as he kissed her tenderly,
“Nobody,”
he said, as he slid down the bannister,
“Nobody,
my darling, could call me a fussy man...
But I do
like a little bit of butter for my bread.”
