A good one for travel..

A nice sized edition for travel but don't choose this particular translation for the under 5's. The wolf gobbles up the pigs and then ends his "career" as the big bad wolf in a pot of boiling water. A little too intense for the littler ones.

I liked how it was like a battle of self vs. evil.

I liked the climax. It was slightly different from the usual three little pig story you always read. My 10th grade English class had to do areport on their favorite children's book, and my book was the only one that used a lot of foeshadowing. An example is when the mother pig boils a big pot of water, it eludes to the wolf's defeat. To make a long story short, I loved it.
