Folk Literature

Everyone has heard the story of the three little pigs, but this is the wolf's side of the story. In this story the wolf explains that it was all a set up and he was framed. He just went over to borrow a cup of sugar from his neighbor for his granny's birthday cake but he had a bad cold so he began to sneeze. It really isn't as bad as it looks, or so he says.

This is a great book to use for teaching point of view by discussing the wolf's point of view. You can also teach comparing and contrasting by using the original Three Little Pigs story and comparing it to this story.
