 Just perfect! We love this book March 11, 2008
S. Mathis (Oklahoma)
My 3 yr old son loves this book. It was a perfect introduction into fairy tales. Yes, the first two pigs do get eaten by the wolf. That is exactly the way I remember the story from my childhood. This fact, didn't distress my son at all. I like that it is an easy to read book and we'll get the benefit of that when he's a beginning reader of text. Right now he's "reading" the book to himelf by memory. The pictures and short text help this skill. It just can't get any better than that. We're adding this one to our collection.
 It fits the audience intended December 6, 2007
ArdisK (USA)
Not all books are written for all audiences. This retelling is perfect for the mature 4-yr-old who is on the verge of learning to read and for the 5- and 6-yr-old who is a Beginning Reader. The pictures are clear and uncluttered with just enough text per page that doesn't overwhelm the intended audience. The Almost-Reader can retell the tale by looking at the illustrations; the Beginning Reader can read it with good support from the illustrations and well-chosen words. Yes, the first 2 pigs get eaten which, curiously, delights this audience (but could be distressing to a younger child. I've used this particular edition since 1995 in my kindergarten with great success - it's perfect for our needs. (And for those who do Sulzby testing, this is a good book to use.)
 Not how I remember July 6, 2001

This book kept my 3 year old's attention, however, after the wolf blew the houses in he ATE the pigs! My son could not accept that and would get upset when I read that part to him. I remember growing up with this book however the pigs escaped and went to live with the other pigs.
