The three little pigs
This is obviously a classic story. It goes thru the progression of friendship in the face of a common enemy and shows how you can work together. It also shows the importance of thinking long term and not opting for the quiets and easiest route. ( )

It is a classic students will enjoy the story while learning moral and many other things while still seeing many cute oictures.

I like this book because it was cute for children. ( )

I remember being read this story when I was in first grade. It's about three little pigs and a big bad wolf who is trying to eat the pigs. In this re-tell the first little pig builds his house out of straw, the second little pig builds his out of sticks, and the third little pig builds his house out of bricks. The wolf is following them and trying to get invited into their houses when that doesn't work he blows the first pig house down and he is sent running to the second pig house. When the wolf blows the second pig house down they run to the third pigs house. When he can't blow the house down made of bricks he then attempts to trick the little pigs out of the house, but the pigs outsmart him. Finally, when the wolf tries to come down the chimney, he burns his tale and ran off howling. The illustrations in this book are really cute, the pigs are holding on to the edge of the page, this story could be told without any words. ( )
