• A Grade 3 Book Review 03 May, 2007
The three Little Wolves and The Big Bad Pig
By Eugene Trivizas
Once three little wolves got some bricks and made a house.But then the big bad pig came along and used a siedgehammer to make the house fall down.So the wolves asked a beaver with concrete for some and made a house.Next the pig came to the house and made it fall down.Then the rinno gave the wolves strong stuff to make a house with.Finlly the pig came and te house fell down and the wolves got some flowersand made a house and the pig came smelled the flowers and was good.
The theme of this book is stick together because the wolves don't go on different trails.The message is don't leave your family behind because the wolves don't leave each other behind.The gerne is fantasy fiction because wolves can not talk.I reccommed this book to my mom because she wants to make a strong house.
I like this book because the charactors different then the other three little pig books.I think the pig and the wolves were dran well because they were detaled.I like how the wolves were determaned to make a strong house.I liked the unacspeced events when the pig made the house fall down.

• The Three Little Pigs With A Twist 06 August, 2007
My son had to have this book. Just from looking at the cover one time! And once we had it in the house, it has become the forever read book. It's illustrations by Helen Oxenbury are amazing and the story will delight children of all ages. It's not scary but it does make you think a bit. I highly recommend this book!

• A Lobo-centric Version Of The Three Little Pigs! 02 June, 2008
The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig, written by Eugene Trivizas and illustrated by the noted artist Helen Oxenbury, is a version of The Three Little Pigs with reversed roles. You probably know the story. But Trivizas puts in some very cute spins, from the China teapot to the "He wasn't called a big, bad pig for nothing!" to the flower house.
I read this to a group of children and adults, ranging in age from 3 to 70. I could tell they enjoyed it, and the text is rich with opportunities to use vocal variety.
Avoid stereotypes! Read this book!

• Here's One For The Wolves 30 July, 2007
I bought this book as a gift for the younger daughter of a friend. Since I had ordered Harry Potter for her sister, I wanted her to have something too. It turned out to be one terrific gift in many ways. As a parent and teacher, I would never give a book to a child without checking it first for suitability. I found the story delightful -- warmhearted and humorous. "And the moral of the story is . . . " even better than the original.
The best part for me was that the wolves, those so unfairly maligned family animals, are the Good Guys.
And oh yes, she loved it.
