Los tres cerditos/ The Three Little Pigs gives a great shortened version of the traditional three little pigs. This book would be good for ELL (English Language Learners) children to experience old tales and develop more vocabulary. The illustrations in the book are colorful and the illustrator used watercolor art to create the images.

The book The Three Little Pigs, written by Luise Orihuela is another childhood classic book, the book is an easy read so children can read along with the book. It is also a funny child appropriate book. I overview loved this book, I thought it was such an amazing book that I would read over and over again.

This is a good book to use for children to enhance vocabulary use. Children get to enjoy the fairy tale in a shortened version, Its also a great book to use for bilingual classes. The illustration is attractive for children.

I love this tale in Spanish. I have honestly been read this story a few more times in Spanish then in English. This book is excellent for Bilingual classes.

A shorter version of the popular fairy tale. Tells the story in English and Spanish. Pictures are not the most detailed.

I enjoyed this retelling of the three little pigs. I think the story was improved by the addition of the wolf meeting his demise. Overall I enjoyed this book.

I love the colorful picture. I love the bilingual title of the book. Could use a little more text.

I love how the story is told in two languages, Spanish and English. A great book for ELL. I definitely recommend this book for children that are learning a second language.

Honestly, this book is not a great book for me. I find it overtold so many times. I would find a better one that has better illustrations. I do however, like that the book is bilingual.

This is the spanish immersion of The Three Little Pigs, the story of 3 pigs each who try to build houses to protect themselves from the big bad wolf

[Brayan Gonzalez · Rating 3 out of 5]

It is a classic story that everyone knows. There really isn't anything new to it. The pictures are nicely drawn.

I LOVED this book!! I’m learning Spanish and this was a great way to see sentence structure and learn some new words and practice cadence. Super cute read and recommend for learners and kids alike.

No me leí este, me leí sus alas se quebraron de Inma Llopis, pero como no está en Goodreads, pues escogí un libros que tiene el número de páginas similar a este.

En cuanto al libro, me gustó mucho y tiene una grande metàfora, pero aún así, le doy 2'5 estrellas. Aprobado al ras

Los Tres Cerditos- The Three Little Pigs- Three little pigs lived a happy, quiet life. They were safe until a wolf showed up. The three little pigs decided to build houses to keep them safe. One built one of straw, another of sticks and another out of bricks. The straw and sticks houses got blown down by the wolf. The other pigs rather to their brother house of bricks for safety. The wolf tried to go down the chimney, but landed in the kettle. This book is an interesting adaptation of Three Little Pigs. The book is written in Spanish and then the direct translation of English right under it. The book was alright, but would work better with a preschool age audience.

I was drawn to this book because I loved this story as a child. It has expressive dialogue, repetition, and rhyming words which makes it a fantastic read aloud book. The repetition also makes it easier for children to follow. This version of the traditional story, is told in both English and Spanish. I would place this book in my library in the classroom for my Hispanic ELL students so that they can read a story in their native language.

With a little practice in my Spanish reading skills, this would be a great book to read aloud to students in a class with both ELLs and native English speakers. The class can take turns identifying cognates or discuss between each other how they can traslate words from English to Spanish with books like these. Also, this book can help ELLs in individual reading tasks. The book may help clarify the English story by supporting them with the Spanish translations.

This is the Spanish version of The Three Little Pigs. It is written in Spanish. I would incorporate this book into my library to assist my Spanish speaking ELL's with books they can read in their native language.

I could use this book to perform for the class a story basket.

i read this book and i learned that you never talk with no body in the street...

[Helen Kumpel · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really like the idea of using a book about a classic tale that almost all students know. English students as well as ELL students can both learn new words as you follow the story.

[Dubovoyalena]

This is a great book for ELL students, providing a common experience to them with a classic story that is very familiar to all student
