What is The Three Little Pigs about?

Three little pigs set off to build homes of their own, but the Big Bad Wolf is never far away. One pig chooses straw, another chooses wood, and the third carefully builds with sturdy bricks. When the wolf comes huffing and puffing, the pigs must use their wits to stay safe. Can the flimsy houses withstand his powerful breath, or will the brick house prove strong enough to stop him? A lively retelling of a much-loved fairy tale.
