Perrault and Grimm LRRH

I would say that in both of these stories that LRRH's ignorance of the dangers of a wolf is to blame for her downfall.

In the Grimm story LRRH told the wolf where her grandmother lived. The wolf suggested that LRRH check out the flowers as they were so beautiful. LRRH thought it would be nice to bring her grandmother some flowers as well so she proceeded to pick some while the wolf was able to run to grandmothers house and eat her up.

In the Perrault version of the story LRRH, once again, told the wolf exactly where her grandmother lived. The wolf suggested that they each take different routes and see who got to grandmother first. LRRH went the long way and picked up nuts and berries along the way. This gave the wolf time to run to grandmothers and eat her all up.
