Once upon a time, there lived three
little pigs.

Folk & Fairy Tale Easy Readers: The Three Little Pigs © Scholastic Teaching Resources One day, each pig decided to build a house
to keep safe from the big bad wolf. You see,
the wolf loved to eat little pigs. 3

The first pig built a cozy house of straw.

blew the house down.

“I’m coming down the chimney to eat you
for dinner!” said the wolf.

12

Folk & Fairy Tale Easy Readers: The Three Little Pigs © Scholastic Teaching Resources “Please do!” said the pigs sweetly.
You see, they had put a pot of very hot stew
at the bottom of the chimney. 13

Folk & Fairy Tale Easy Readers: The Three Little Pigs © Scholastic Teaching Resources When the wolf came down the chimney,
he landed right in the pot.
“OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!” he yelled.

Then, quick as a wink, he dashed out the
door and ran far, far away.

Folk & Fairy Tale Easy Readers: The Three Little Pigs © Scholastic Teaching Resources After that, the three little pigs lived safe and
sound in their cozy house of bricks. And the
big bad wolf never bothered them again.
