An unseen reader goes head-to-head with the big bad wolf in this hilarious counting-book twist on The Three Little Pigs.Once upon a time, there were three little pigs.Then the wolf ate them.THE END. This story is too short! I want a longer one! In this clever counting book, the big bad wolf doesn’t want to tell a long story. He wants to get to the eating part. But the reader has other ideas. From a pig soccer team to a pig for every letter of the alphabet to 101 pigs in an animated movie, the stories get more and more fantastical . . . but they’re always too short and they ALL end the same way.
