Bookroo's summary

In the heart of the Cajun swamp, three pig brothers, Trosclair, Thibodeaux, and Ulysse, must build their own homes after being kicked out by their mom. But when Claude the gator comes lurking, their choice of building materials is put to the test. Can they outsmart the cunning predator, or will their new lives be in jeopardy? This humorous twist on a classic tale promises unexpected challenges and swampy surprises.

From the publisher

Trosclair, Thibodeaux, and Ulysse are three pigs with a whole lot to do. Their mom has just kicked them out of the house and it’s time they make their own way and start constructing new homes in the heart of the swamp. When ol’ Claude the gator comes sneaking along, however, the three brothers are forced to question their choice of construction materials! This hilarious tale from the creators of the popular Petite Rouge (which School Library Journal declared “A treat from start to finish”) will once again take you to the heart of the Cajun swamps and show you the Three Little Pigs like you’ve never seen them.
