5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and cultural, August 2, 2002
By "katzechen" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
I've read and reviewed most of the basic tellings of "The Three Little Pigs", as well as most of the variants. Here's my take on it.

This excellent little variant has that great Appalacian voice and elegant watercolor illustrations to go with it, just the tiniest bit cartoony (the pigs have cute heart-shaped noses). It is a gem: alone among all the tellings, it gives each pig a distinct personality! But the surprising thing is that this isn't really a "Three Little Pigs" story in the traditional sense. Its plot is original and intriguing, following how the first two pigs are caught by the "mean, tricky old drooly-mouth fox", and how the little runt, Hamlet, finally outwits him.
