The

Three Little Pigs


A long time ago, there was a mother pig who had
three baby pigs. She did not have enough food to
feed them, so she told them to go and find their
own homes.
The first baby pig was lazy and he made his house out of hay. The second baby
pig was a little better and he made his house out of wood. They both finished
quickly and played all day.

The third baby pig was hardworking and he made his house out of bricks. It took
him a long time, but his house was strong and safe.
The next day, a big bad wolf came to the
forest where the pigs lived. He was hungry
and he wanted to eat the pigs.

He saw the hay house and smelled the pig


inside. So he knocked on the door and
said:

Little pig! Little pig! Let me in! Let me in!

But the little pig saw the wolf's big paws


through the keyhole, so he answered back:

No! No! No! Not by the hairs on my chinny


chin chin!
Then the wolf showed his teeth and said:
Then I'll huff
and I'll puff
and I'll blow your house down.

So he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house


down! The wolf opened his jaws very wide and bit down
as hard as he could, but the first little pig escaped and
ran away to hide with the second little pig.
The wolf followed him and saw the wood
house and smelled the pigs inside. He
asked the pigs to let him in. So he knocked
on the door and said:

Little pig! Little pig! Let me in! Let me in!

But the little pigs saw the wolf's big ears


through the keyhole, so they answered
back:

No! No! No! Not by the hairs on my chinny


chin chin!
Then the wolf showed his teeth and said:
Then I'll huff
and I'll puff
and I'll blow your house down.

So he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house


down! The wolf opened his jaws very wide and bit down
as hard as he could, but the two little pigs escaped and
ran away to hide with the third little pig.
The wolf followed them and saw the brick
house and smelled the pigs inside. He
asked the pigs to let him in. So he knocked
on the door and said:

Little pig! Little pig! Let me in! Let me in!

But the little pigs saw the wolf's big teeth


through the keyhole, so they answered
back:

No! No! No! Not by the hairs on my chinny


chin chin!
Then the wolf showed his teeth and said:
Then I'll huff
and I'll puff
and I'll blow your house down.

So he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down! But he could not make the
house fall down. He was so tired that he could not huff anymore. He stopped to take a
break and think.
The wolf thought of another way to get in.

He climbed up a tree and went to the roof. He


saw the chimney and wanted to go down it.
But the third pig was smart and he made a
fire in the fireplace. He also put a big pot of
water on the fire.

The wolf did not see the fire or the water. He


went down the chimney, but he fell into the
pot. The water was very hot and it burned
him. He jumped out of the chimney and ran
away from the house.

He never came back.


The first pig and the second pig were sorry for being lazy and careless.
They thanked the third pig for saving them. The third pig taught them how
to make brick houses too.

They all lived happily ever after in their brick houses.
