The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs

Everybody knows the story of the Three Little Pigs. Or at least they think they do.

But I'll let you in on a little secret.

Nobody knows the real story, because nobody has ever heard my side of the story.

I'm the wolf. Alexander T. Wolf.

You can call me Al.

I don't know how this whole Big Bad Wolf thing got started, but it's ALL WRONG.

This time, the BIG, BAD Wolf - he prefers us to call him Al gets his chance to tell his what's behind the scene - The True Story of the Three Little Pigs.

If your child has already read the classic tale of the Three Little Pigs, he / she will find this very interesting. 

It all started with a birthday cake and a big bad cold ... 

Once upon a time, Alexander the Wolf was making a birthday cake for his dear old granny. Poor Al had a terrible head cold and kept sneezing for the whole day. 

While making the cake, Al ran out of sugar, so he walked down the street to ask his neighbor for a cup of sugar. 

And his neighbor was A PIG. 

That PIG wasn't too bright (unfortunately). He had built his whole house out of straw ...

Al was thinking who in his right mind would build a house of straw?

Like the old tale, the Wolf knocked on the door ... And he huffed and snuffed because his nose was really itchy. And he sneezed, the whole straw house fell down. 

It was all an accident.

If you want to find out what happened to the second and third pig, pick up this book and find out from the voice of Alexander T. Wolf. 

Maybe you will become sympathetic and help him changing the history.

The Elves and the Storymaker

There was once a silly Storymaker and his wife who were very poor.

The old man hadn't sold a story in years and they had nothing to eat but old story books with cheese on top.

One evening, sitting in front of this dusty old computer, the Storymaker realised that he couldn't start a new story because he didn't have a single idea in his head.

"Well, that's it!" he told his wife.

"I will never write another book."

The Elves and the Storymaker is another brilliant and seriously silly fairy tale reworked by Laurence Anholt with illustrations by Arthur Robins.

The original The Elves and the Shoemaker, a classic fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm who are among the best-known story tellers of European folktales, with works including Cinderella, The Frog Prince, Hänsel und Gretel and Snow White.

This reworked fairy tale is about a poor old man, a silly Storymaker who ran out of ideas. So in the middle of the night, there comes some little helpers to his house writing brilliant, scary, silly and fantastic story night by night. 

Who are they? Would it be the Elves? Gorillas? Aliens?

Have your child to find out!

Bleeping Beauty

Once upon a throne sat a brand new baby Princess. 

The King and Queen were so happy; they had a big party and invited the ten Good Fairies.

But they did NOT invite the Hairy Scary Fairy.

All the Good Fairies made a wish for the Princess ...

Just as the last fairy was about to make a wish, the doors burst open and a huge voice roared ...  

Most would agree that fairy tales often form an integral part of our childhood. From Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to the Sleeping Beauty, many of them you have already known by heart.

Have you ever imagined the Sleeping Beauty been reworked to a Bleeping Beauty, whom got stuck on a computer game for 100 years by the Bad Fairy?

This is a hilarious fairy tale reworked from Laurence Anholt's Seriously Silly Color series. 

It is perfect for children whom are able to recognize sight words, read with phonics strategy to sound words out and confident to read slightly longer sentences. 

Recommend for 5+
