Narration To Books The Three Pigs

This Caldecott Medal-winning picture book begins placidly (and familiarly) enough, with three pigs collecting materials and going off to build houses of straw, sticks, and bricks. But the wolf’s huffing and puffing blows the first pig right out of the story . . . and into the realm of pure imagination. The transition signals the start of a freewheeling adventure with characteristic David Wiesner effects—cinematic flow, astonishing shifts of perspective, and sly humor, as well as episodes of flight.
Satisfying both as a story and as an exploration of the nature of story, The Three Pigs takes visual narrative to a new level. Dialogue balloons, text excerpts, and a wide variety of illustration styles guide the reader through a dazzling fantasy universe to the surprising and happy ending. Fans of Tuesday’s frogs and Sector 7’s clouds will be captivated by old friends—the Three Pigs of nursery fame and their companions—in a new guise.

Write-Up Of Books The Three Pigs

2002 Caldecott Medal. Ummmm. What the!?! The art is coolish, but the lame story (or lack of story)...Are you kidding me? This reminds me of one of those Saturday Night Live skits where you sit there puzzled while those who created it are high-fiving themselves and chuckling.

Shame on me for never reading this before! I suppose I may not have appreciated it when my kids were small, because it doesn't really work as a sharing or read-aloud book. But for what it is, it's wonderful. And pioneering, I believe.I love the use of white space. I love the self-promotional gallery walls showing scenes from Wiesner's other books. I love the dragon. But... I do feel sorry for the wolf.

An inventive picture book that reminds me just a bit of The True Story of The Big Bad Wolf by Jon Scieska and Lane Smith, in that it assumes you know the traditional tale and then departs from it. In Wiesner's version we begin with the conventional story with a kind of retro illustration style, then one pig gets blown into an alternative universe where the pages of the original story appear on the page in a kind of meta-fictional way. The pigs escape in this reinvention.I have five Wiesner books

The Three Pigs by David Wiesner puts a twist on the classic story of The Three Little Pigs. The picture book begins with a white pig who has built his house out of straw. A wolf comes along and asks to come inside the pigs home, but the pig declines. In response, the wolf blows the house in and literally blows the white pig out of the story. Then, the wolf goes to the pink pigs stick house. While he is blowing the house down, the white pig shows up in the white space of the book, outside the

This is definitely a fresh viewpoint on the story of the classical 'Three Little Pigs'. What makes this book unique is the deconstruction of the plot, and the bravery of pigs who decided to take matters into their own hands.I really like the idea of pigs flying away on the paper airplane made of the pages of their own story. In this way they outwitted the wolf, who needed to put more effort in finding them. The double spread white pages with pigs sitting on the airplane give the impression of

What the heck? WHAT THE HECK! Oh, my goodness.I WILL NOT WEAR CLOTHES UNTIL YOU READ IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The book, The Three Pigs, begins as the classic tale we all have grown to know with three Pigs that set off to build houses of their own. The first Pig made his house of straw, and the next Pig made his house sticks, and the last Pig made his house of brick. The Wolf came and blew the straw house down and ate the pig, then he blew the stick house down and ate the pig. Just when you think you know whats going to happen next the story takes a surprising turn. The Pigs leave the story! They find
