Little Red Riding Hood (1922) is a Walt Disney short cartoon, and is a rendition of the traditional story of Little Red Riding Hood. The film is part of the Laugh-O-Grams series that was released in 1922. This is one of the first ever Walt Disney cartoons, and considered Disney's first attempt at animated storytelling. Rather than using animation cels, it was made mostly by photographing inked lines on paper. The film was considered to be lost for many years and it was listed in 1980 on the American Film Institute's "10 Most Wanted Films for Archival Preservation". A print of the film was discovered by a British collector in a London film library in 1998 and was restored the same year.

The film introduces the prototype for Julius the Cat, who would become Disney's first named, recurring character.

A second American short film with the same title was also released in 1922 which starred Baby Peggy.
