Product Details

Web ID: 15924339

When it comes time for the three little wolves to go out into the world and build themselves a house, their mother warns them to beware the big bad pig. But the little wolves' increasingly sturdy dwellings are no match for the persistent porker, who has more up his sleeve than huffing and puffing. It takes a chance encounter with a flamingo pushing a wheelbarrow full of flowers to provide a surprising and satisfying solution to the little wolves' housing crisis. Eugene Trivizas's hilarious text and Helen Oxenbury's enchanting watercolors have made this delightfully skewed version of the traditional tale a contemporary classic.

A wonderful example of the "backstory"

I can only imagine the bitter person who read this half-way through and threw it away. Apparently this person can't imagine that maybe the story of the three little pigs was written from the PIGS point of view. Imagine it from the WOLVES point of view. This can open a door to perspective, bias, and how sometimes the world can be different based on where you are! What a great teaching tool for children today!
