【媒体评论】
Did the story of the three little pigs ever seem slightlybiased to you? All that huffing and puffing--could one wolf reallybe so unequivocally evil? Finally, we get to hear the rest of thestory, "as told to author Jon Scieszka," straight from the wolf'smouth. As Alexander T. Wolf explains it, the whole Big Bad Wolfthing was just a big misunderstanding. Al Wolf was minding his ownbusiness, making his granny a cake, when he realized he was out ofa key ingredient. He innocently went from house to house to house(one made of straw, one of sticks, and one of bricks) asking toborrow a cup of sugar. Could he help it if he had a bad cold,causing him to sneeze gigantic, gale-force sneezes? Could he helpit if pigs these days use shabby construction materials? And afterthe pigs had been ever-so-accidentally killed, well, who can blamehim for having a snack? As with The Stinky Cheese Man and OtherFairly Stupid Tales, (another stellar collaboration by Scieszka andillustrator Lane Smith), children who know all the old stories byheart will delight in reading impudent new versions. Here,Scieszka's text is clever, savvy, and tabloid-quick, and Smith'sstretchy-strange illustrations complete this funny, irreverent,thoroughly original tale. (Ages 4 to 8) --This text refers to theHardcover edition.
