In "The Three Little Pigs," three siblings set out to build their own houses after leaving their mother's home. Each pig constructs a house using different materials: straw, sticks, and bricks. When the Big Bad Wolf arrives, he easily blows down the first two houses, sending the pigs fleeing to the safety of the third pig's sturdy brick home. The wolf's repeated attempts to break in fail, and eventually, he is outsmarted. The story emphasizes themes of hard work, perseverance, and the importance of building a strong foundation. Ultimately, the cleverest pig triumphs over the wolf, ensuring their safety. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].

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.
