"The Story of the Three Little Pigs" by L. Leslie Brooke is a classic children's tale written in the early 20th century. This illustrated story focuses on the adventures of three little pigs who venture out into the world to build their own houses and confront a menacing wolf. The book aims to impart moral lessons about hard work, resilience, and cleverness, showcasing the importance of preparation and the consequences of carelessness. In the story, the three little pigs each build their homes out of different materials: straw, furze, and bricks. The wolf easily destroys the fragile houses of the first two pigs, consuming them both. However, the third pig builds a sturdy brick house that withstands the wolf's efforts to blow it down. Throughout the narrative, the clever third pig outsmarts the wolf multiple times, eventually boiling him alive when he attempts to enter through the chimney. The story concludes with the surviving pig living happily ever after, emphasizing themes of resourcefulness and the triumph of good over evil. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
