The three pigs escape the wolf by going into another world where they meet the cat and the fiddle, the cow that jumped over the moon, and a dragon.
In this takeoff on the familiar story of the THREE LITTLE PIGS, the three porcine brothers once again encounter the Big Bad Wolf. Here, however, when the Wolf huffs and puffs, he blows the pigs right out of their illustrations and into a book of nursery rhymes. While there, the pigs save a dragon from a bloodthirsty knight and he repays their kindness by chasing off the Big Bad Wolf once and for all. Color illustrations accompany the text. Named one of the Best Children's Books 2001 by Publishers Weekly and winner of the 2002 Caldecott Medal.
