Once upon a time, there were three little pigs.
They decided it was time to build their own homes.
The first little pig built his house out of straw.
He finished quickly and danced happily around his new home.
The second little pig built his house out of sticks.
He worked harder, but soon he too enjoyed his cozy stick home.
The third little pig chose to build with bricks, taking extra care.
It took longer, but the brick house stood strong and proud.
One day, a big bad wolf approached the straw house, huffing.
With a puff, the wolf blew the straw house down!
The first pig ran to the stick house for safety, trembling.
But the wolf blew the stick house down too!
Together, they ran to the brick house, hoping it would hold.
The wolf huffed and puffed, but the brick house wouldn't budge.
Safe inside, the pigs learned that hard work pays off.
