The Three Little Wolves and The Big Bad Pig by Eugene Trivizas and Helen Oxenbury

This book is one of my Traditional or Folk literature books.

This book is a version of the Three Little Pigs and the Big bad wolf. In this book the wolves build 3 houses one of brick, one of concrete, and one of barbed wire, armor plates, iron bars, heavy metal padlocks, Plexiglas, and some reinforced steel chains. All three of these houses the Big Bad Pig was able to break through. The little wolves decided to build one last house and use flowers. Well when the Big bad Pig tried to blow this house down, the sweet smell of the flowers made him see all the bad he was doing and changed him into a Big Good Pig and they all lived happily ever after together. I would use this book to teach my students about different versions of the same stories, along with teaching them about how no matter how mean someone may be, they can become good if they are shown the right things.
