The Three Little Pigs

This is The Three Little Pigs retold and illustrated by James Marshall. This book is a stapled softcover edition published by Reading Railroad (Grosset & Dunlap), in very good condition, not previously owned, with pages perfect, but having light cover wear from handling, and with a publisher's remainder mark on the bottom edge of the book near the spine. This book retells the familiar tale in which one of three brother pigs survives a wolf's attacks by using his head and planning well. This book has beautiful colored illustrations on each page accompanying the text. Publisher's note: The creator of the Caldecott Honor Book, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, returns to give life to another classic fairytale, with his funny new dialogue and exuberant, cartoon-like illustrations. Original. "There are fairy tales, and there are Marshall's tales.  Readers can be forgiven for preferring his over all the rest." - Publishers Weekly
