(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jennifer Mazzucco. Davis, a well-known Appalachian storyteller, has set down his version of the "Three Little Pigs," based on his grandmother's telling of the cautionary tale. Only one pig brother escapes the clutches of the fox, because only he listens to his mother's instructions to build a house of rocks and bricks. Detailed, expressive paintings depict a rural southern setting.
