Just when you think you know everything about the story of, The Three Little Pigs, Professor Goose, nephew of Mother Goose, steps in. So begins this tongue-in-cheek book about the professor’s mission in life to set people straight about this tale.
For instance, he says that pigs really like things clean. They aren’t trying to be dirty when they cover themselves with mud, they are just controlling their body temperature.
Then, the Professor brings up the power of wolves’ lungs, and if they really could blow a house down. He moves on to talk about the quality of the homes the pigs made, compared with the way the professor suggests homes should be built--he knows the right way to do it! Also, he has lots other ideas he can’t wait to share.
This book is bursting with funny things, and lots of laughable situations about this well-known fairy tale.
The creator of Franklin the Turtle has written a fun-filled story that will be enjoyed by ages five through ten-years-olds. They will have lots of giggles while reading this fresh look at a familiar fable in this five-star picture book!
