Here it is, the wolf's version of the story about those famous three little pigs (we're not sure whether he's yet sold the movie rights). Question to ask your child: "Who is telling the story? How do you know? Is the wolf telling the truth? Look at the pictures for clues."

These short tales, which retell Mother Goose rhymes, encourage reading out loud. There's two-color text, so kids and grown-ups know exactly which parts to speak. Fun for both of you!
