Description
A bit more modern version of the Three Little Pigs. With a wolf on the loose, the pigs learn that it will matter what they build their houses from. One decides to live on liquid with a boat, only to face the challenge of water freezing! Another lives in an igloo and learns that heat will turn his house to liquid. The last makes a stone house and finds out that a solid can be broken with force. Then they use air to float, but what happens when the balloon pops? It all matters! 32 pgs, pb. ~Amber
