Product Overview

This interactive retelling of the Three Little Pigs story allows the reader to play the part of the big bad wolf. Three interior die-cut holes invite readers to huff, puff, and blow the pigs houses down! This fractured fairy tale ends sweetly when, rather than blowing down the third pigs brick home, the wolf/reader blows out the candles on a cake baked by the pigs! A satisfying and engaging read for every young Three Little Pigs fan.

Praise for Huff & Puff
Simple but wonderfully expressive, the illustrations are ink drawings with pale washes of tan, pink, yellow, and blue. A beautifully designed and wholly engaging picture book for young children.
Booklist

Sure to be a family favorite.
Shelf-Awareness

A good chance for youngsters to relish enacting the wicked role while still getting a friendly reconciliation at the end.
Kirkus Reviews

Very young readers will get a kick out of taking the wolfs part, and their parents will appreciate that the scariest bits of the original tale have been omitted.
School Library Journal

Like her repetitive text, Ruedas illustrations are gently funny and elegantly simple.
Horn Book

The reader is encouraged to follow the pigs into the book.
