REVIEW: The Four Little Pigs.

#review #picturebooks 

This charming picture book from Kimara Nye performs the old switcherooney on the familiar tale of the Three Little Pigs. Here's the blurb:

Tom’s granny is a witch and whenever he goes to stay he has exciting adventures.
When Tom says that the Three Little Pigs story is boring, Granny uses a spell to send him into the book.  Tom must be clever to avoid being eaten by the big bad wolf!

The mechanic of sending the protagonist into the story is a nice one and one that really gripped my four year old! He knew the traditional tale well and really engaged with the plot. Knowing what came next really helped him concentrate on the story, but he still wanted to know how it turned out with Tom being in the story too. There are fabulous illustrations from Marcin Bruchnaiski and I have every confidence that this will be a firm bedtime favourite.
