Fairy-tale characters exchange letters

A housewarming invitation at the Three Little Pigs’ brick home brings familiar storybook figures together through correspondence. Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood are on the guest list, while the wolves’ presence recalls the trouble behind the pigs’ sturdy house. Alma Flor Ada’s sequel to *Dear Peter Rabbit* builds its tale around the idea of fairy-tale characters as pen pals, giving the book an epistolary structure. Leslie Tryon’s colorful, intricate illustrations accompany the letters and add a visual dimension to this meeting of well-known folk-tale characters.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young readers encountering familiar fairy-tale characters in a new shared story
  • Children who enjoy books built around letters and correspondence
  • Families looking for an illustrated fairy-tale read-aloud

Book overview

Everyone who's anyone will be at the Three Little Pigs' housewarming party. Goldilocks and Little Red Riding Hood have already marked it on their calendars.
Unfortunately, so have the wolves -- those who've caused the Pigs to build their brick house in the first place!
In this wonderfully creative sequel to Dear Peter Rabbit, Alma Flor Ada imagines what it would be like if a few beloved fairy-tale characters were pen pals. Leslie Tryon's intricate and colorful illustrations make the unique epistolary format fun for young readers.
