Ha I remember this book. The three little pigs retold in a humorous way. So, the big bad wolf is telling us the story about what really happened (according to him) in the story. He claims that he's innocent. It all started with a cold. The wolf had a cold, and he was baking a birthday cake. One thing lead to another, and he ended up eating the pigs. So.. yeah. Happy Reading!
