凱迪克金牌得主David Wiesner在本書中大玩起形式與框架的遊戲!作者徹底解構了原版的「三隻小豬」,讓小豬們從故事的邊界中脫離出來。小豬們於是在不同的故事間穿梭遊戲,認識了別的故事中的朋友,並為原本該被大野狼吃掉的命運改寫了全新的結局。David Wiesner以嶄新的後設手法思考著繪本的界線,為個別的文本開啟了對話的橋樑。主角小豬們在不同形式的故事間游走,作者也隨之改變牠們的描繪手法,時而立體寫實、時而平面漫畫。David Wiesner無疑重新定義了繪本的空間。
"Clever, whimsical and sophisticated." --New York Times Book Review
Taking visual narrative to a new level, this picture book from the creator of Tuesday and Flotsam begins a seemingly familiar tale of three pigs preparing to build houses of straw, sticks, and bricks. But when the Big Bad Wolf comes looking for a snack, he huffs and puffs the first little pig right out of the story . . . and into the realm of pure imagination! Dialogue balloons pepper a wide variety of illustration styles taking readers through a dazzling fantasy universe to the surprising and happy ending. You will never look at "The Three Little Pigs"--or artwork--the same way again!
"A funny, wildly imaginative tale that encourages readers to leap beyond the familiar; to think critically about conventional stories and illustration, and perhaps, to flex their imaginations and create wonderfully subversive versions of their own stories." -- ALA Booklist, Starred Review
