Customer comments on this selection.
 Beautiful illustrations, great take on an old story
The illustrations in this are clever, detailed, and beautiful. It's a very fun twist on an old favorite story.
A retelling of the "Three Little Pigs" story with a tumbleweed twist!
Who hasn't heard of or read the classic story for children, The Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf? In this retelling, the pigs are javelinas, and the wolf is the trickster, the coyote. Instead of houses made of straw, sticks, and bricks, the houses are made of tumbleweed, cactus ribs, and adobe bricks.
The ending won't surprise you. There's a reason coyotes howl like they mean it.
This is a cute retelling, with gorgeous illustrations by Jim Harris. There's a lot of opportunity to put some vocal variety into your reading when you have that favorite kid sitting by you. And if you like this type of retelling, don't forget to look up the book The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig!
THREE LITTLE JAVELINAS
The Three Little Javelinas (Reading Rainbow Book)
I BUY THIS BOOK FREQUENTLY FOR BOTH MY ENGLISH AND SPANISH FRIENDS. IT IS PUBLISHED IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH AND IS A WONDERFUL STORY. MAKES A GREAT GIFT
Great Educational Story!
This story has a multitude of educational features included in an updated story of 'three little critters' and their adventures facing adversity-together- with a good ending for the three little ones- and justice delivered to the 'bad guy'-
Great gift idea and a great book
Living in the southwest this is one of my favorite baby gifts to give. This and a little stuffed Javelina from the toy store make such a cute pair.
