I feel that the overall moral of the story is that time and effort will always pay off. However within that each character has a distinctive purpose within the story. The first and the second pig illustrate He two pigs prioritized pooh because they were both too focused on getting free time that they constructed their homes quickly and used weak material. The third pig represented hard work and had his priorities straightened out, unlike the two other pigs. The third pig was determined to build a strong house not just to sleep in, but made sure he was safe inside and away from the wolf.
The third pig always thought outside of the box and thought about the danger and how to keep him safe. The two other pigs didn’t think like the third pig, but wanted built a house quickly without putting time and effort into building it. That is why when the wolf huff and puffed the house went down within seconds. The wolf represents life challenges and struggles that we all face.. We can’t runaway from them like the first two pigs did because like the wolf did, it will continue to appear. s individuals we need to make sure that we are prepared for anything that life may throw at us. Like the third big he was ready for the wolf to attempt and blow his house down. If we aren’t prepared, like the first two pigs we will go down. However unlike the third pig he was prepared for all circumstances. Each interpretation and version of the classic story of the “Three Little Pigs”, has added and extended In the book three ninja pigs instead of being three pigs who were brothers. Instead it was two brothers and one sister, the sister was the third pig.
In this reading like the original story the first pig had his house built out of straws, the second one built with wooden sticks and the third made out of bricks. Another difference with these pigs were they saw the wolf as a bully and was tired of his actions. So as a result they took it upon themselves to register in ninja school to learn ways to fight and defeat the wolf. The first pig took aikido classes which is described as a self defense class that utilizes the wrist, joint and elbow grips to immobilize or throw ones opponent.
The he second pig was registered in a jujitsu class which is another form of self defense that uses the strength and weight of an adversary to disable him. The last pig learned karate which is another method of self defense that employs hand strikes and kicks to disable an opponent. Just how the traditional story goes the first and second pigs run off to the third pigs house for help and to retreat from the wolf. The third pig always defeats the wolf in every story. The second pig thought he was too good and believed he master the skill of jujitsu.
The sensei told the second pig to come back and practice but he refused too. The first pig dropped out in less than two weeks from learning different skills and techniques because he got bored. But the third pig was determined and spent extra time practicing the skills she learned in martial arts school. She practiced and worked hard for months. She was determined in defeating and scaring off the wolf. With this book it was more specified and focused more on the martial arts skills then the homes they lived in.
This is what made this book different from the other stories of the three little pigs He blew down the house of the second pig and not the first or the third pig By David Wiesner:The three little pigs story has a merging of two different stories. The wolf doesn’t end up eating the pigs. Although he blows their house down, all three pigs run away and the get into a new world. They are stuck trying to find the right story and world they belong in. In one story a cat follows them and also a dragon who brings along a gold rose.
Once they got the right pictures the friends that they make with the dragon and cat accompany the pigs. The put the pictures together so they can go back to their world. The wolf in the picture threatens to blow down the third pigs house down, even though it is made of brick. As the story comes back to life all the characters are able to get back to the story of the three little pigs. Jon Scieszka: true story of the 3 little pigs the story starts off by questioning the audience about the traditional three little pig story.
The story also assures us that their is more to the story than what we really know. the story is told through the perspective of the wolf and his name is Alexander T. Wolf, but he tells the audience to call him Al. The story also incorporates new characters like his grandmother. He blames the houses getting blown down because he had a cold. One of the symptoms he had was sneezing. As he was making a cake for his grandmother he ran out of sugar. He tells us that he walked over to the nearest neighbor who was the pig who made his house out of straws.
As he was about to leave because he believed no one was home, he huffed and sneezed. After the house came down the pig was believed to be dead, so the wolf ate him. Then Al went over to the seconds pigs house for sugar. Although this time the pig shooed him away. But of course the wolf sneezed and blew down the house of sticks. Like the first pig the brother was found in a whole and had the same fate as his brother. He justified himself by saying that food would spoil over and that he needed a meal.
