Book 435

The Three Ninja Pigs, written by Corey Rosen Schwartz, illustrated by Dan Santat, Putnam Book, 2012.

First of all, accurate to the original tale or not, I'm always happiest when the pigs live.  And bonus points for this book because the wolf lives, too.  This book is a great twist on the original piggy tale.  It emphasis how to be proactive, respective and prepared.

This illustration are so power-packed they virtually pop off of the page.
