In "The Three Little Pigs," three siblings set out to build their own houses, each choosing different materials: straw, sticks, and bricks. The first two pigs, opting for quick and easy solutions, soon find themselves in trouble when the Big Bad Wolf arrives, huffing and puffing to blow their homes down. However, the third pig, who builds a sturdy brick house, stands strong against the wolf's efforts. As the wolf tries various tricks to invade the brick house, the clever pig uses his wits to outsmart the predator. This classic tale teaches the importance of hard work and perseverance.

This book contains the following story:

The Three Little Pigs
Three little pigs grow up and the time comes for them to leave home and make their own way in the world. The first little pig builds himself a house of straw. The second little pig builds himself a house of sticks. The third little pig builds himself a house of bricks. One day a wolf comes along and blows down the house of straw. The first little pig escapes to his brother’s house of sticks and hides with him, but the wolf follows and blows down the house of sticks too. The two brothers then seek sanctuary at the third brother’s house of bricks, thinking that the wolf cannot blow down such a solid structure. This is true, but the wolf then climbs down the chimney. However, the third little pig – being a sensible sort – makes sure that there is a big cooking pot on the fire to catch the wolf and the three pigs have a yummy wolf flavoured dinner.
