description: 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 &amp; 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. BooklistSure to be a family favorite. Shelf-AwarenessA good chance for youngsters to relish enacting the wicked role while still getting a friendly reconciliation at the end.
