“Once upon a time there were three pigs..” Everyone knows the traditional story of the three little pigs, but not everyone knows how the three pigs would change the story given the opportunity. Everything seems normal until the big bad wolf blows the first little pig right out of the story! After a couple of pages pass the pigs realize they can actually escape the story, and even change it up a little bit. Eventually the three pigs stumble upon a nursery rhyme, and they even change how they look to fit right in. Next, the three pigs adventure into a fairy tale full of dragons, castles, and kings. The three pigs make friends with the characters from other stories and decide to return home to their brick house, after making sure the big bad wolf can’t get to them anymore. This is one of the most creative and innovative stories I have ever read about the three pigs. With each setting the illustrations change, from the traditional story to nursery rhymes to fairy tales and back to traditional. This is one of the best adaptations I have ever read, and it is definitely worth reading many times!
