“The three little pigs and the big bad wolf go to the circus. In hand-lettered text and frolicking illustrations that make clever use of the white space, the pigs relentlessly taunt the wolf. They are overbold, but whom are they trying to convince? This is a delightful take on the classic pigs v. wolf tale.”
