«L'autèntica història dels tres porquets!» is the children's picture book by Jon Scieszka, illustrated by Lane Smith, in hardback (32 pages, in Catalan).
In this version, the wolf gives his particular account of what happened with the three little pigs, presented as a report from «El diari llop». The classic tale is subverted with irony and humour, and Lane Smith's illustrations reinforce the journalistic parody. A story that invites readers to question the official version.
Original title: The True Story of the Three Little Pigs (1989). Translation by Aloe Azid. Part of the Trampantojo collection.
Aimed at children, though its irony and nod to the classic tale make it enjoyable for adults too.
