awsome submitted by khaleela11 on June 15, 2014, 4:30pm you have to read this book!!!

Somewhat funny submitted by FordAlpha on July 11, 2018, 10:25pm I have a bit of a thing for Three Little Pigs stories. So does my two-year-old. This version wouldn't necessarily make my top-10 list in the category, but it would make my kids'; they love love love it. The ridiculous story is told with a very straight face. The wolf's distinct lack of aggression is amusing, as are the small visual gags scattered throughout.

Predictable Yet Charming submitted by Meginator on August 20, 2021, 7:51pm This adaptation of “The Three Little Pigs” modernizes the pigs’ concerns a bit, providing a motive for each pig’s particular choice in building material and sharing more of the wolf’s story. The alternate take is somewhat predictable given the book’s title, but the illustrations are charming and it’s always fun to reconsider stories you’ve heard a million times. This isn’t particularly innovative or clever, but it is fun.
