The Three Pigs is a children's picture book written and illustrated by David Wiesner. Published in 2001, the book is based on the traditional tale of the Three Little Pigs, though in this story they step out of their own tale and wander into others, depicted in different illustration styles. Wiesner won the 2002 Caldecott Medal for his illustrations, Wiesner's second of three such medals.[1]
Plot
The story starts with three pigs who decided to build a house.
Trivia
The flying fish picture is a parody of Wiesner's first Caldecott Medal-winning picture book Tuesday.
