Who gets to decide? Has anyone asked the pigs? No? Well, it’s about time someone did.” In Wiesner’s unique retelling, the three pigs, harassed by the wolf as usual, make a major change and take their fate into their own hands journeying through familiar fairy tales, rescuing dragons, interacting with other characters and exploring the world of other nursery rhymes. ![]() The classic tale of the Three Little Pigs changes quite drastically in this rendition of the familiar story. ![]()
