"If you get Ross down on paper," warned Wolcott...

The Other Three Little Pigs
ISBN: 9781420846416 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The standard tale of the Three Little Pigs serves as a take-off for this little story of Jimmy, Johnny, and Jude as they interact with their mother, the carriers of straw, sticks, and cloy, and the wolf. The violence of the original account gives way in this version to naivety combined with the good manners every loving mother would wish to impart to her brood. It is hoped that the natural fruit of this life-style will induce the young reader to try the "golden rule" in real life.
