A favourite classic children's story which is a favourite with my Grandchildren. Recommended.

A good moral to this story, showing how not cutting corners and using the correct 'materials' can be very important. There are lots of variations to the specifics of this tale that I've come across, but the version where the pigs survive and live happily ever after (rather than get eaten) seems to make the little ones in the audience quite a bit less scared and upset

Elizabeth Ross's The Three Little Pigs is a slight reworking of the classic tale of the Three Little Pigs. Rather than the pigs getting eaten as is the case with the original, Ross's story rather has the three pigs survive which ends the story on an positive note. The main themes that readers will take away are of cooperation, teamwork, and problem solving. Young readers are taken through the logical thought process, which is a great introduction into basic reasoning and logic. This would be an

This is the story of three pigs, who are building their houses. "One of them, does a great amount of hard work and build his house with bricks and the remaining are LAZY. They build their houses with sticks and straws". This places an emphasis on sibling rivalry in the family construct.'One day, a wolf comes to their place and destroys the houses of lazy pigs but couldn't destroy the house of hardworking pig, because he built his house with bricks and have done more hard work then lazy pigs in h...

I read the challenged book of the “The Three Little Pigs” because that was a folktale every child has heard growing up and I was curious as to why it was challenged and even banned in some places. After reading it, I can see that the violence was a cause for it. I researched a little more and discovered it was also banned because the fact that the book is implying that pigs are food could be offensive to the Muslim community. There was even a movement that banned the book from teachers to ban al...

In this classic tale, three pigs find themselves building houses out of sticks, straws, and bricks. After building their houses, 'the big bad wolf' tries to blow down their houses to fulfill his hunger. This story builds off of the genre of fantasy, as the events that occur are just simply not realistic and would not occur. I found that this book really stood out to me with its simple illustrations. Looking at the pigs, there aren't too many details to them as their faces are flat. The backgroun...

I love this book. I think it is a timeless classic. I love how each little pig experiences an encounter with the wolf. I love how the children can judge for themselves if the pigs use the right kind of material to keep their houses standing. I like how none of the pigs got eatten in this book.I would read this book before the children went to the block center, or the drama center. I would have the children reflect on what they can do to prevent the blocks from falling down. I would have the chil...

Recently I visited a friend's home. His daughter started showing me the videoes she watches. There was this The Little Cats video, and I couldn't help associating these pigs and cats together.Funny and adorable writing.

You can do an art lesson letting the students build the house out of different materials. Straw, popsicle sticks, etc. You could also do a lesson on sequencing. The setting is at the three pigs house.

The three little pigs is not one of my favorites book, I actually don’t have one. I chose this book because I read it with my little nephew and makes me real close to him. To me this short story it’s funny and ridiculous but at the same time interesting on how each of the little pigs had their house build of different materials. The bad wolf blow the first two houses of the pigs but could not blow down the house of bricks of the smarter pig. I would recommend this story to the parents that like

In the original version of The Three Little Pigs, the three pigs set off to find materials to each build their own house. The first pig builds the house out of straw. Once the pig is finished, the big bad wolf comes knocking on the door to let him. He disguises himself so the pig won’t know it’s him and let him in. The pig doesn’t let him in so the wolf huffs and puffs and blow his house down. The wolf then eats him. The second pig builds his house out of sticks. The wolf sees that he is finishe...

By using this story of The Three Little Pigs, along with The True Story of the Three Little Pigs, I would challenge my students to think critically on whose voice matters and how retelling of stories in their own voice can change the meaning of the text. By starting with a read-aloud with The Three Little Pigs, I would conduct a think-aloud with the students to promote them to think about who has the voice in this story and how that influences the meaning of the reading. By using the think-aloud...

The Three Little Pigs is a classic story about three pigs and their work ethic when it comes to building their own homes. As the first two pigs take a more relaxed approach on building their homes out of straw and then sticks, a wolf comes into the picture and quickly teaches them that being lazy has its downfalls. When the wolf meets the third little pig he meets his match, because the third pig is far more hardworking and cleaver than the first two. This is a tale of the true benefits of how h...

This was one of my favorite fairy tales/fables when I was a child. We got this copy when our children were small and they loved it too. The story is very cute and very teachable with the lesson that you need to choose carefully in the decisions and choices you make in life. Reading it again with my grandchildren just makes me realize why it is still popular today.

The three Little Pigs is a classic tale which has been enjoyed by many, for a number of years and still proves popular to this day. The story takes the reader on a journey of three little pigs leaving home for the first time. Each pig, purchases different materials in order to build their own home. The first two pigs are unsuccessful as the ‘big bad wolf’ is able to blow their houses down. The third little pig builds a house of bricks which the wolf if unable to blow down and therefore remains s...

The Three Little Pigs is a classic tale, which is why it is categorized in the traditional-literature shelf. In the story, the pigs build houses of straw, sticks, and bricks. But once their homes are built, a big bad wolf comes after them and tries to blow down each house in hopes of having a pork-y snack. After the first two houses are blown down by the wolf's huffs and puffs, the little pigs find refuge in the brick house. The writing trait that sticks out in this story is organization. This i...

The Three Little Pigs is a great example of a traditional tale picture book. The story is a classic! I enjoyed this book and the illustrations along with it. I was drawn into the story by the different personalities of the pigs. It's cute to see the different ways the pigs thought to build a house. I think that could be made into a great interactive lesson with students. I would ask them what materials they would use to build a house. It could even be turned into a science lesson and I would act...

This week I chose The Three Little Pigs for my fairytale selection. Growing up my siblings and I would always read this as a bedtime story. I really enjoyed reading this classic fairytale as an adult now. I personally never got tired of the book as a kid and still never do reading it! I never have read this version of the book though. In this story each of the three pigs chose different materials to build their individual houses. The first two pig’s houses were not successful and the “big bad wo...

This was one of my favorites growing up, so naturally I would read this book to all the neighborhood children as well as the children I would babysit. It's a funny quirky story that engages young readers to get excited about reading. With the nursery rhyme books; I feel that it excites young readers to want to read more and I have seen that it does. This story draws children in by just reading the first page, which is exciting. This book excites children because they are animals that are buildin...
