I'll Huff & I'll Puff & I'll Blow Your House Down

Language point: what happened next ?

'I'll Huff & I'll Puff & I'll Blow Your House Down !' ... the wolf said to Little Red Riding Hood as Grandma was busy in the kitchen baking cakes. He took in a deep breath - big enough almost to burst ... expanding his lungs and let out an almighty gust. The wolf huffed and puffed - his cheeks went red, his nostrils flared and his ears stuck out. The door swept open and all the cobwebs disappeared from the corners of the room. The trees outside bent in the breeeze, leaves flew from the trees and the flowers in the garden tumbled over, landing in the soil. The curtains wafted in the wind and the windows slammed shut. One of the tiles fell off the roof ... and a chimney stack came loose. Gradually the cement between the bricks eroded and the bricks dropped to the ground - almost knocking Little Red Riding Hood on the head !
