The Three Little Pigs (A Little Golden Book) Reviews


  • Archit

    Recently I visited a friend's home. His daughter started showing me the videoes she watches. There was this The Little Cats video, and I couldn't help associating these pigs and cats together.

    Funny and adorable writing.

  • Shirley Revill

    A favourite classic children's story which is a favourite with my Grandchildren. Recommended.

    ☆☆ 5 Stars ☆☆
    What a great story it is! Moral and the way of describing it is impressive.

    OVERVIEW
    This is the story of three pigs, who are building their houses. One of them, does a great amount of hard work and build his house with bricks and the remaining are LAZY. They build their houses with straws.
    One day, a wolf comes to their place and destroies the houses of lazy pigs but couldn't distroy the house of hardworking pig, because he built his house with bricks and have done more hard work then lazy pigs in house-building.

    Overall this short story is for children. BUT MORAL IS FOR EVERYONE!! ^__^

    This was one of my favorite fairy tales/fables when I was a child. We got this copy when our children were small and they loved it too. The story is very cute and very teachable with the lesson that you need to choose carefully in the decisions and choices you make in life. Reading it again with my grandchildren just makes me realize why it is still popular today.

    frankly the pigs should have faced more punishment for such foolish and poorly planned construction, and to solve their dilemmas with setting people on fire is a terrible message to send

    The three little pigs is not one of my favorites book, I actually don’t have one. I chose this book because I read it with my little nephew and makes me real close to him. To me this short story it’s funny and ridiculous but at the same time interesting on how each of the little pigs had their house build of different materials. The bad wolf blow the first two houses of the pigs but could not blow down the house of bricks of the smarter pig. I would recommend this story to the parents that like to read small stories to their child before going to sleep.

    I read the challenged book of the “The Three Little Pigs” because that was a folktale every child has heard growing up and I was curious as to why it was challenged and even banned in some places. After reading it, I can see that the violence was a cause for it. I researched a little more and discovered it was also banned because the fact that the book is implying that pigs are food could be offensive to the Muslim community. There was even a movement that banned the book from teachers to ban all books involving pigs in primary schools throughout the UK.

    You can do an art lesson letting the students build the house out of different materials. Straw, popsicle sticks, etc. You could also do a lesson on sequencing. The setting is at the three pigs house.

    This was one of my favorites growing up, so naturally I would read this book to all the neighborhood children as well as the children I would babysit. It's a funny quirky story that engages young readers to get excited about reading. With the nursery rhyme books; I feel that it excites young readers to want to read more and I have seen that it does. This story draws children in by just reading the first page, which is exciting. This book excites children because they are animals that are building a home out of hay until a wolf comes and destroys it. I liked all the illustrations in this story; it tells you what is happening with all three pigs and the home and the wolf. I enjoyed the end when the wolf falls into a caldron and dies. This is a funny, admiring nursery rhyme story that still captivates children's reading and will continue.This is a book that I've read myself and to many others to engage them in reading stories for fun.

    Actually read this to a little girl at church today and have not read it from the book in ages. My grandfather used to tell us the story but always jazzed it up. The pigs rode motorcycles and flew B-12 bombers (yes, he was a pilot trainer in WW2) and it was ALWAYS a good story, no matter how they got from house to house. And the wolf? Well sometimes he was just a troubled soul who was hungry for pinto beans and cornbread. Sometimes he was a bloodthirsty beast who wanted a pig roast. Love this story no matter how it is told. And I miss my grandpa so very much today. :)

    I loved this story when I was a kid. My parents gave me a big book of short stories when I was 5 and I used to read it cover to cover, every week, for a while. This was one of my favorite stories in that collection. First, I used to think pigs were adorable. Secondly, I used to love the way the pigs outsmarted the wolf. I understood the lesson a couple years later and loved it even more. Such a good lesson to learn as a kid.

    The moral: Hard work pays off.

    A great lesson; not just for kids.

  • Caitlin Hawk

    This book is a classic. I loved reading it as a child. I feel that I learned moral lessons from this book. I would recommend this suspenseful book to any age because it is a good read.

  • Kylee Lockridge

    Another great classic children's book that children need to experience and read. Its silly and funny and you can make great fun lessons and experiments in the classroom for the lessons.
