The Three Little Pigs
The Three Little Pigs
Once
upon a time there were three little pigs. One pig built a house of
straw while the second pig built his house with sticks. They built their
houses very quickly and then sang and danced all day because they were
lazy. The third little pig worked hard all day and built his house with
bricks.
A
big bad wolf saw the two little pigs while they danced and played and
thought, “What juicy tender meals they will make!” He chased the two
pigs and they ran and hid in their houses. The big bad wolf went to the
first house and huffed and puffed and blew the house down in minutes.
The frightened little pig ran to the second pig’s house that was made of
sticks. The big bad wolf now came to this house and huffed and puffed
and blew the house down in hardly any time. Now, the two little pigs
were terrified and ran to the third pig’s house that was made of bricks.
The
big bad wolf tried to huff and puff and blow the house down, but he
could not. He kept trying for hours but the house was very strong and
the little pigs were safe inside. He tried to enter through the chimney
but the third little pig boiled a big pot of water and kept it below the
chimney. The wolf fell into it and died.
The
two little pigs now felt sorry for having been so lazy. They too built
their houses with bricks and lived happily ever after.
