Review

This is the typical Three Little Pigs story until the end, when the wolf is invited into the brick house after promising not to eat the pigs. The cover of the book has finger puppets of the pigs and the wolf, while the back cover is a stage with an opening cut into it. Children can use the puppets and the stage to act out the story. Retelling a story is good for children, and often fun for them, so some children may be drawn to this. A concern would be keeping track of the puppets once the plastic they are sealed in is opened.

Overall Book Score: good
