He was framed!

Would you listen to The True Story of the Three Little Pigs again? Why?

Yes, and will listen to it often. I first found this book during a book drive thing our school did when I was a kid. Its only seven minutes and done amazingly well by famed actor Paul Giamatti. As a kid, i loved this book, and now all grown up it still makes me giggle. I will keep returning to this, and since its so short I may just take out my earbuds and get others to listen to. Its just that kinda story I'm sure will at least make you giggle in a couple parts.

Which character – as performed by Paul Giamatti – was your favorite?

The "big,bad" Wolf, definitely.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed out a few times. And I'm still craving a cheeseburger (that will make sense after you listen to it, and since its only 7 minutes or so, that shouldn't take long.)

Any additional comments?

If your a child, or child at heart, you should know the story of the three little pigs. And BOTH sides of the story should be told. My only complain is your paying about a dollar a minute, but since it has music, and Paul brings his best to the mic, it's still debatable if it should be cheaper or if the price is right. Either way, I think its really worth a listen. And anyone who is disappointed believes the three little pigs' side anyway!

A great book for kids and adults alike

This is a great book to remind us all that there are always two sides to every story. It is a great way to teach kids this lesson.
