THE THREE LITTLE PIGS AND THE FOX
New York : Aladdin, 1997
IL K-3
ISBN 0613016661

| This
tale starts out a bit like the traditional fairy tale but there are differences.
The third little pig is a girl named Hamlet. Hamlet's two older brothers
go off and get caught by the tricky fox but Hamlet is smarter than her
brothers. She tricks the fox into telling her where her brother are being
kept. Hamlet rescues them and the story has a happy ending. I think you'll
enjoy the hill language and the Great Smoky Mountains setting in this new
version of an old favorite. |
