«The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs» is the children's picture book by Jon Scieszka, published by Viking Books for Young Readers in paperback (32 pages in English).
The wolf Alexander T. Wolf insists that the familiar version of «The Three Little Pigs» is not true and finally tells his side of the story. It all started, according to him, with a birthday cake for his grandmother and a bad cold, though his bad reputation complicates everything. The narrative leaves it to the reader to judge what really happened.
Illustrated by Lane Smith. Originally published in 1989. Winner of the Maryland Black-Eyed Susan Book Award (1992) and nominated for the California Young Readers Medal.
Aimed at early readers and at adults who want to rediscover a classic tale with humour.
