Plot:
This story essentially provides an alternative perspective of the traditional "three little pigs" tale. Provided from the viewpoint of Mr A. Wolf, it is argued that it was a cold that resulted in the death of the little pigs and not cruel intentions as was originally implied.
Themes:
Seeing things from different perspectives, determining what is truth, intentions
Age:
Appropriate for KS1 and KS2. The story can help children see situations from other people's perspectives which is an important lesson for them to learn. It is also brilliant in helping them to determine what or who they believe which can encourage individuality and independence.
Subject:
A brilliant resource for literacy particularly if focusing on "the three little pigs", as would be ideal in helping to produce a newspaper article or an informative piece of writing, but can also be used as a device to show persuasive writing as the wolf tries to convince us of his story.
