The Three Little Pigs is a classic children's story about three little pigs who build houses of different materials to protect themselves from a big bad wolf. The first pig builds his house of straw, the second pig builds his house of sticks, and the third pig builds his house of bricks. The wolf comes and blows down the first two houses, but the third pig's house is too strong for the wolf to blow down. The wolf tries to climb down the chimney, but the third pig boils a big pot of water and keeps it below the chimney. The wolf falls into the pot of boiling water and dies. The third pig is safe and sound in his house.
