The wolf doesn't have any sugar for his cake, so he walked down the street to his neighbor's house. The first house is made of straw. The wolf huffed and snuffed and sneezed the house down. Then, he strolls to the next neighbors house. This pig's house is made of sticks. Again, he sneezed and blew the house down.

The theme of the story, "The Three Little Pigs," is that hard work pays off. For example, after the first two pigs built their house out of straw and sticks, "[t]he wolf huffed, and he puffed, and he blew the house in" (Trotter 3). This part of the story is important because it shows that the first two pigs didn't work hard, which ended in their houses being devastated by the wolf. Moreover, their lazy thinking has caused their house to become a pile of rubble. Another example of the theme, hard work pays of, is "[t]he wolf huffed, and he puffed and he blew and blew... Until he passed out" (6). This shows that the third, hard-working pig, made his structure so patiently and well, that it paid off in the end. Furthermore, the hard work protected
One story that can be directly compared across cultures is The Three Little Pigs, originating in England, where it was first printed in the 1840s, but the story dates back much further. In the original English version, the first two little pigs are devoured by the big bad wolf, who is finally outwitted by the last pig who lures the wolf down the chimney into a pot of boiling water. The Japanese version, however, ends with the same fate for the wolf, but differs greatly in how the wolf reaches that fate. Unlike the English version where the third pig outwits the wolf on his own, the Japanese version tells of how the first two pigs escaped their flimsy homes and worked together with the third little pig to defeat the wolf.

The students did listen to the story, but they also already knew what would happen at the end because they heard of the book before. I also saw that the students were very entertained when I
"The Three Little Pigs" deviates form this pattern, since it is the oldest pig who is superior to the two little pigs all along.
