This book tells the classic story of the three little pigs and the wolf's quest to eat them. This book embellishes the story a bit by adding a reason why the pigs initially move to the country and more back and forth trickery between the wolf and the pig who lives in the brick house. Also the end is a bit different as the wolf is outsmarted which effects the tranquil environment of living in the country now that there are no wolves. Fun and lively illustrations with lots of humor in them. The author uses pig puns as well in both the illustrations and a bit in the text.
