Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books: "The text is pretty much poker-faced straight man here, with the art pulling the weight of the jokes....This has the advantage over many postmodern reworkings of making a very light reading demand, so kids whose artistic sense is more sophisticated than their verbal perception will appreciate their chance to be in on the joke." |

In this takeoff on the familiar story of the THREE LITTLE PIGS, the three porcine brothers once again encounter the Big Bad Wolf. Here, however, when the Wolf huffs and puffs, he blows the pigs right out of their illustrations and into a book of nursery rhymes. While there, the pigs save a dragon from a bloodthirsty knight and he repays their kindness by chasing off the Big Bad Wolf once and for all. Color illustrations accompany the text. Named one of the Best Children's Books 2001 by Publishers Weekly and winner of the 2002 Caldecott Medal. |
