THE THREE PIGS

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. dD1+jRp5VGwq49NPIGv2FCLXZLgayKqCuakCXEuhZTGQR4YryRgw0bgDBYa7V0zP
