| Kindergarten-Grade 3. This contemporary retelling features Serafina Sow, whose mission in life is to bring waffles to the world. After building a highly successful wafflery, she retires to the Gulf of Pasta, leaving the family business in the hands of her capable offspring, Percy, Pete, and Prudence. The three operate the business and build themselves comfortable homes of straw, wood, and brick, of course. Enter Tempesto, a thugish, leather-jacketed wolf. He orders the three pigs to cook themselves?he isn't interested in waffles. Kellogg's usual busy, highly defined illustrations complement the humorous, clever text. In the satisfying, nonfatal ending, Serafina Sow returns from retirement to help her children defeat Tempesto, who has the meanness steamed out of him after coming down the chimney into the waffle iron. He is sent to the Gulf of Pasta in Serafina's place, where he spends his days as a mellow beach bum. A tempting choice to pair with Jon Scieszka's The True Story of the Three Little Pigs (Viking, 1989) and your favorite traditional version for porcine storytime fun.?Lisa Falk, Palos Verdes Library, CA |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| This story is a refreshing change from the classic version of the three pigs story. The pigs, not only have names, but they also attend school and run the family business. Neither the pigs or the big, bad, thug-like wolf get eaten. Instead, there's a humorous and positive ending to this tale. The illustrations are fun and intricate and exemplify the great Steven Kellogg style. As a reading teacher, I have used this book as part of a study of classic tales. My students particularly enjoy the humor, illustrations, and details that they can compare to other versions of the same tale. This is a great book to share with students and readers of all ages! |
