The Three Pigs

The Three Pigs

Written and Illustrated by David Weisner

Publisher: Clarion Books 2001 40 pages

Genre: Picture book, and Fairy Tales

Reading Level: Ages 4-8

Summary:This is a very original look at the classic story of the Three Little Pigs. In this version, the pigs are blown out of the story by the big, bad wolf and all three of them go into the nursery rhyme of Hey, diddle diddle. When they left, the cat with the fiddle followed them out. They went into another story and rescue a dragon from the knight. Then all of them, the pigs, the cat and the dragon, went back into the three pigs’ story and the dragon scared the wolf away and they all lived happily ever after.

Response: I love this book. It’s funny and I especially like the twist in the story.
