The Three Pigs at first seems like the same story I had heard since I was a little kid. The wolf comes to the first pigs out and blows his house down, but instead of eating the pig, the pig escapes and blows the pig out of the story. The wolf continues to the next pig’s house and the same thing happens. The story goes into an adventure as the pigs go on a paper airplane ride. The pigs even meet with the cat in the fiddle. In the end, the pigs find their way back home to the brick house and out of harm’s way from the wolf.
The first time I read The Three Pigs was to my third grade class. We first talked about the original story of The Three Little Pigs and what happened. I told them to read the story and compare and contrast. The kids laughed so hard throughout the entire book. A lot of the students commented on how they liked the bubbles or dialogue balloons. We were able to come up with a wonderful list for comparing and contrasting. I would recommend this book to teachers who wanted to grab student’s attention and who are doing a lesson on comparing and contrasting.
