The Three Little Pigs

Once upon a time, there were three little pigs who wanted to live in a pond, but first they needed to build their houses. Down the road from the three little pigs lived a big bad grizzly bear who enjoyed outwitting little pigs more than he enjoyed having them as neighbors in the pond.

The first little pig built his house of porcelain.

Along came the big bad grizzly bear, and he said, "Little Pig, Little Pig, let me come in!"

The first little pig replied, "Not by the hair of my pinky!

Then the grizzly bear said, "Then I'll scribble and I'll burp and I'll blow your house in."

And the big bad grizzly bear scribbled and he burped, and he blew the first little pig's house in.

The second little pig built his house of ashes.

Along came the big bad grizzly bear, and he said, "Little Pig, Little Pig, let me come in!"

The second little pig replied, "Not by the hair of my esophagus!

Then the grizzly bear said, "Then I'll blush and I'll snicker and I'll blow your house in."

And the big bad grizzly bear blushed and he snickered, and he blew the second little pig's house in.

The third little pig built his house of bronze.

Along came the big bad grizzly bear, and he said, "Little Pig, Little Pig, let me come in!"

The third little pig replied, "Not by the hair of my chin!

Then the grizzly bear said, "Then I'll sit still and I'll exercise and I'll blow your house in."

But no matter how much the big bad grizzly bear sat still and exercised, he couldn't blow in a house made of bronze. The big bad grizzly bear felt hairy. "Roger," he said, and went away accidentally.

From that day on, the big bad grizzly bear never outwitted the three pigs again.
