The Three Little Pigs is a classic folktale that tells the story of three pig siblings who each build their own house to protect themselves from the Big Bad Wolf. The first pig builds a house out of straw, the second out of sticks, and the third out of bricks. When the wolf comes along, he easily blows down the first two houses, forcing the pigs to run to their brother’s brick house for safety.

Despite the wolf’s best efforts—including huffing, puffing, and even trying to sneak down the chimney—he cannot destroy the brick house. The story concludes with the pigs safe and the wolf defeated, teaching a moral lesson about the value of hard work, preparation, and perseverance. Through its simple narrative and vivid imagery, The Three Little Pigs emphasizes the importance of building strong foundations—both literally and metaphorically.
