Three Pigs Snack

I was inspired yesterday to start a new category, "Book and a Snack". We all know know how fun it is to read with your kids, so I'll feature a book and a snack to go with it each week. That way, you can discuss the book or have some imaginative play with the snack. It's a great way to spend some quality time together or you can use it for part of a school lesson. If you have a great book you'd like a snack for, please let me know!


This week's Book:

The True Story of the Three Little Pigs by A. Wolf
by John Scieszka



This is a hilarious adaptation of the traditional story, told from the wolf's point of view. He was an innocent victim just trying to borrow a cup of sugar! The witty humor is really for a little older kids (6 and up) but my younger girls still thought it was funny.
