This book is a twist on the well known story of The Three Little Pigs but has a perspective change and altering the roles of the characters. Throughout this book, there is a range of fantastic vocabulary that children can pick up on and attempt to put into their own work. This book can be used to do a comparison of the characters at the beginning of the story and then again at the end or can be used to predict what is going to happen at the end of the book. I really enjoyed the twist at the end

This is a clever take on the Three Little Pigs book however there is a twist.

This book was enthusiastically recommended to me by a book shop employee who was quite a fan of the artistry of children's books.

What a wonderfully enchanting spin-off of the Three Little Pigs tale! Unlike most fairy tales, the wolves in this story are cuddly and lovable with soft fur and fluffy tails. On three occasions, they try to build a house, each time of sturdier materials, only to have it blown down by the big bad pig. Their determination and perseverance is admirable, and the reader is likely to be cheering them on. The illustrations add to the charm. At last, a flamingo gives them flowers. The final house built
The traditional English fairy-tale about the three little pigs and their various confrontations with a big bad wolf is inverted here, as three little wolves go out into the world and attempt to make a home for themselves. Warned by their mother about the dangers posed by the big bad pig, the wolves build themselves a secure brick house, only to watch their dastardly porcine enemy bring it down with a sledgehammer. Their concrete house fairs no better, being destroyed by a pneumatic drill, and

The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig is a story written by Eugene Trivizas along with illustrations by Helen Oxenbury about how three wolves try to outsmart a big bad pig.
