[J-Lynn Van Pelt · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a strong book for middle to late beginning readers. There is strong repetition, but the repetition changes mid-book. The story is the typical three little pigs story, but there are fun extension activities-- a build-a-house art extension, comprehension questions, a picture dictionary, a picture story board to put in order, and a find the pot game on every page.

I know it is only a level 1 reader, but my young children were waiting for the huff and puff.

The repetitive rhyme makes this version of the classic story fun for children to both hear and read. Colorful illustrations make the story even better!

A little short on text. I think the point is to teach children how to narrate stories for themselves.
