A descendent of Mother Goose, Professor Marie Curious Goose takes on the task of fact checking the classic tale of the Three Little Pigs. With a little science, logic, and some cool fun facts, this book is sure to delight readers of all ages. Definitely a different take on a classic tale, but it's a great way to introduce younger readers to reality vs. fairy tale. The illustrations are fun as well and work together to present a very entertaining story! Huge thank you to LibraryThing and Tundra Books for this giveaway! Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. This is a beautiful book with lovely illustrations. The premise is a cute one - taking an old fairy tale and applying science and common sense to debunk the silly actions of the characters. Small children will like looking at the book and hearing the fairy tale again and older children (5-6) may enjoy the explanations. Which relates to my only criticism. The book almost seems to have a split personality - it alternates between age levels for comprehension. But a good parent can probably work around that and fit the book to their child's age and comprehension. Overall I give the book a 4 on a 5 point scale.Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing.

Just when you think you know everything about the story of, The Three Little Pigs, Professor Goose, nephew of Mother Goose, steps in. So begins this tongue-in-cheek book about the professor’s mission in life to set people straight about this tale.
For instance, he says that pigs really like things clean. They aren’t trying to be dirty when they cover themselves with mud, they are just controlling their body temperature.
Then, the Professor brings up the power of wolves’ lungs, and if they really could blow a house down. He moves on to talk about the quality of the homes the pigs made, compared with the way the professor suggests homes should be built--he knows the right way to do it! Also, he has lots other ideas he can’t wait to share.
This book is bursting with funny things, and lots of laughable situations about this well-known fairy tale.
The creator of Franklin the Turtle has written a fun-filled story that will be enjoyed by ages five through ten-years-olds. They will have lots of giggles while reading this fresh look at a familiar fable in this five-star picture book!
