“Yes, very,” said the little Pig;“These are the best apples I have ever tasted. You must try them. I will throwone down to you.” And he threw it as far as he could, into a stream at thebottom of the hill.

While the Wolf ran hungrily afterthe apple and worked to fish it out of the stream, the little Pig jumped downand ran home with a big bag of apples.

When the Wolf emerged from the stream, he sawthat the little Pig had left. Now the Wolf was very angry, as well as beingcold and wet. He was more determined than ever to catch the little Pig and eathim up.

The next day the Wolf came again,and said to the little Pig, “Little Pig, there is a Fair in Town thisafternoon: will you go?”

“Oh, yes,” said the Pig, “I willgo; what time shall you be ready?”

“At three,” said the Wolf.

So the little Pig went off beforethe time, as usual, and got to the Fair, and had a fun time on the rides.

The little Pig worked fast, and he returned homewith a big bag of  turnips well before six o’clock.

When the Wolf came, promptly atsix o’clock,  he said, “Little Pig, are you ready?”

“Ready?” asked the little Pig, “Ihave been and come back again, and got a nice big bag full! I’m cooking somenow for my breakfast.”

The Wolf felt very angry at this,but thought that he would get the little Pig somehow or other; so he said,“Little Pig, I know where there is a nice apple-tree.”

“Where is this apple tree?” saidthe Pig.

“Down at Merry-garden,” repliedthe Wolf; “and if you will not deceive me I will come for you, at five o’clocktomorrow, and we will go together and get some apples.”

The little Pig went to bed earlythat night, and got up at four o’clock the next morning.

Well, the little Pig bustled up,and went off for the apples, hoping to get back before the Wolf came; but theWolf was learning and came early. At half past four o’clock, just as he wascoming down from the apple tree, the little Pig saw the Wolf coming, which, asyou may suppose, frightened him very much.

When the Wolf came up he said,“Little Pig, what! are you here before me? Are they nice apples?”

The Wolf came, as he did to theother little Pigs. Having just missed catching the first and second littlePigs, the Wolf was by now very, very, hungry.

“I’ll catch and eat up this thirdPig for sure” he declared.

So the Wolf said, “Little Pig,little Pig, let me come in.”

“No, not by the hair of my chinnychin chin.”

“Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff,and I’ll blow your house in.”

Well, he huffed and he puffed,and he huffed and he puffed, and he puffed and he huffed; but he could not blowthe strong brick house down.

When he found that he could not,with all his huffing and puffing, blow the house down, he decided to trick thelittle Pig. He said, “Little Pig, I know where there is a nice field ofturnips.”

“Where?” said the little Pig.

“Oh, in Mr. Smith’s home-field;and if you will be ready tomorrow morning, I will call for you, and we will gotogether and get some for dinner.”

“Very well,” said the little Pig,“I will be ready. What time do you mean to go?”

“Oh, at six o’clock.”

Well, the little Pig got up atfive, and ran off on his own to get the turnips.

“No, not by the hair of my chinnychin chin.”

“Then I’ll puff and I’ll huff,and I’ll blow your house in!” So he huffed and he puffed, and he puffed and hehuffed, and at last he blew the house down.

The second little Pig barelyescaped the hungry Wolf, and ran as fast as he could back to the safety of theold barn and his mother Sow. Although the Sow was happy to see her little Pigssafe, she was disappointed that they had returned so soon after trying to makeit on their own.

The third little Pig met a Manwith a load of bricks, and said, “Please, Man, sell me those bricks tobuild a house with”; so the Man sold him the bricks, and he built a strongsturdy house with them.

And rushed into the tool-shed, and jumped into a can. It would have been a beautiful thing to hide in, if it had not had so much water in it. Mr. McGregor was quite sure that Peter was somewhere in the tool-shed, perhaps hidden underneath a flower-pot. He began to turn them over carefully, looking under each. Presently Peter sneezed–‘Kertyschoo!’ Mr. McGregor was after him in no time. And tried to put his foot upon Peter, who jumped out of a window, upsetting three plants. The window was too small for Mr. McGregor, and he was tired of running after Peter. He went back to his work. Peter sat down to rest; he was out of breath and trembling with fright, and he had not the least idea which way to go. Also he was very damp with sitting in that can. After a time he began to wander about, going lippity–lippity–not very fast, and looking all round.
