There was once a Mother Pig who had three little pigs.
One of them was named Big Pig.
One was named Middle-sized Pig.
One was named Little Wee Pig.
One day Mother Pig said to her three little pigs, “ You must all go away and seek your fortune. ”
“ Very well, Mother dear, ” said the three little pigs.
And away they went to seek their fortune.
Very soon Big Pig met a man with some straw. “ Please, Man, give me some straw to build a house, ” he said.
“ Very well, I will give you some. ”
So Big Pig built his house of straw.
Very soon Mr. Wolf came to Big Pig's house.
He knocked at the door and said, “ Little Pig, Little Pig, Let me come in. ”
“ No, no, by the hair Of my chinny, chin, chin. ”
“ Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, And I'll blow your house in. ”
So he huffed, and he puffed, and he blew the house in, and he ate Big Pig.
Middle-sized Pig met a man with some wood. “ Please, Man, give me some wood to build a house, ” he said.
“ Very well, you may have some. ”
So Middle-sized Pig built his house of wood.
Very soon Mr. Wolf came to Middle-sized Pig's house.
He knocked at the door and said, “ Little Pig, Little Pig, Let me come in. ”
“ No, no, by the hair Of my chinny, chin, chin. ”
“ Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, And I'll blow your house in. ”
So he huffed, and he puffed, and he blew the house in, and he ate Middle-sized Pig.
Little Wee Pig met a man with some bricks.
“ Please, Man, give me some bricks to build a house, ” he said.
“ Very well, you may have some. ”
So Little Wee Pig built his house of bricks.
Very soon Mr. Wolf came to Little Wee Pig's house.
He knocked at the door and said, “ Little Pig, Little Pig, Let me come in. ”
“ No, no, by the hair Of my chinny, chin, chin. ”
“ Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, And I'll blow your house in. ”
So he huffed, and he puffed, and he puffed, and he huffed, but he could not blow the house in.
Then Mr. Wolf said, “ Oh, Little Wee Pig, I know where to get some nice, big, red apples. Be ready tomorrow morning at five o'clock. ”
“ Very well, I will be ready. ”
But Little Wee Pig got up at four o'clock and went for the apples.
Then he went home.
At five o'clock Mr. Wolf came.
“ Are you ready, Little Wee Pig? ” asked Mr. Wolf.
“ Ha, ha! ” laughed Little Wee Pig. “ See this pail of nice, red apples! I got up at four o'clock and picked them. ”
This made Mr. Wolf very angry, and he growled, “ Gr-r, gr-r! I am going to eat you, Little Wee Pig. ”
So Mr. Wolf climbed upon the roof and went down through the chimney.
Little Wee Pig had a big pot of hot water on the fire.
Mr. Wolf fell into it and was killed.
Little Wee Pig cut a hole in Mr. Wolf's coat.
Then out jumped Middle-sized Pig and Big Pig.
The three little pigs ate Mr. Wolf for supper.
