3 Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig. Trading places makes for a great re-imagining. submitted by ejmarcash on July 11, 2011, 6:29pm The traditional "Big Bad Wolf" finally gets a fair shake in this role-reversal fable. The three GOOD wolves strive to build a sturdy house that will withstand the fabulously creative destructiveness of the Big Bad Pig.

It was not our traditional approach to bedtime stories, but my husband was out of town and, finding Trivizas and Oxenbury's book in a local bookstore, read it to our 2 and 3 year olds over Skype. It was an instant hit. With every new picture, our daughter enthusiastically squealed out "Bad PIGGG!" The book is delightful for the children and a great laugh for the adults who understand the parody. Our family gives it four thumbs up.

Nice twist submitted by walbridge602 on June 17, 2014, 3:49pm I like how it isn't the usual "Three little pigs and big bad wolf" gig.

Hilarious submitted by Natasha806 on July 10, 2014, 4:56pm I think it's really funny that they switch the roles of the characters from 3 little pigs and the big bad wolves.Hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice Change submitted by AprilCDB on July 27, 2016, 11:42am Like the role reversal in the book and its interesting the kind of house that ultimately stops the big bad pig and the ending is kind of nice.
