The Three Little Pigs

 Once upon a time, there were three little pigs who lived in a forest. They decided to build their own houses, so they could be safe and secure from the big, bad wolf that roamed around the forest.

The first little pig built his house out of straw. It was quick and easy, and he thought it would be enough to keep him safe. The second little pig built his house out of sticks. It was a little bit stronger than the first pig's house, but still not strong enough to withstand the big, bad wolf.

The third little pig, however, was the wisest of them all. He built his house out of bricks, knowing that it would be the strongest and most secure house of all. The other two pigs laughed at him, thinking he was wasting his time and effort.

One day, the big, bad wolf came to the forest and saw the three little pigs' houses. He approached the first little pig's house and blew it down with a single breath. The little pig ran to his brother's house, made of sticks, but the wolf blew that one down too.

Finally, the two little pigs ran to the third pig's brick house, and the wolf tried to blow it down, but he couldn't. The third pig was safe and sound, and he let his brothers in.

The big, bad wolf was defeated, and the three little pigs learned a valuable lesson. It's important to plan ahead and do things properly, even if it takes more time and effort. The third little pig was rewarded for his wisdom, and the other two pigs learned from their mistake.

The moral of the story is that hard work, planning, and diligence pay off in the end.
