The Woodsman



The Woodsman is the hero figure in the tale of Little Red Riding Hood. As a woodsman, he cuts down trees, but isn't particularly careful when running around a room with his axe. In Sesame Street adaptations, he has been known to have a problem showing up in the story on time. On one occassion, he chopped down the maple tree in front of Granny's house -- a particular favorite of The Big Bad Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood, an act which brings the two together to exact revenge on the woodsman.
