    The Three Little Pigs is the traditional tale retold with elegant rhymes and a unique visual style. It tells of how the three little pigs leave home in search of a place of their own to live. They soon build themselves a cosy little house but no sooner have they finished than the mischievous wolf blows it down and the poor little pigs have to run off and start all over again. With the wolf in the picture, there’s no way the three little pigs can settle down so they look for a way to outwit the wicked creature and, with any luck, live happily ever after. The story follows the original closely but with all new words and elegant rhymes. The illustrations combine hand drawn designs and photographic textures giving them a fresh, original look and feel.
