Edgar Award-nominated author Brenda Seabrooke reimagines the tale of the three little pigs in this enchanting fable. Here James, Marvin, and Lester Pygg have just put the finishing touches on their new brick house when a knock sounds at the door. It's a wolf! But the Pyggs know better than to let a big, bad wolf in. So the wolf hatches a new plan-sit and wait until the Pyggs come out.

"A really funny late-beginning reader/early chapter book that turns the tale of the Three Little Pigs on its ear. Some of the pages, scenarios and episodes are more successful than others, but as a whole, this is a good read that introduces new vocabulary and a wry sense of humor. " — Todd (4 out of 5 stars)
