Fifer and Fiddler complete their houses brisk ly with much ease and have time to play for the rest of the day. While Practical Pig is building, his two brothers play and poke fun at him for working so hard. Practical Pig attempts to warn the brothers saying, â€Å"You can play and laugh and fiddle. Don t think you can make me sore. I ll be safe and you ll be sorry when the Wolf comes through your door!† (The Three Little Pigs). Then, the Big Bad Wolf arrives, sneaking up on Fifer and Fiddler. The two brother hastily retreat to their own houses. The Wolf first goes to Fifer’s straw shanty and blows down his house with little resistance saying, â€Å"I ll huff and I ll puff and I ll blow your house in.† (The Three Little Pigs). Fifer is able to elude the wolf and seek refuge in Fiddler’s house. Next, the Wolf pretends to admit defeat and go home, but he returns later disguised an innocent, baby sheep. The pigs are not fooled by the disguise and promptly say, â€Å"Not by the hair of our chinny -chin-chin! You can’t fool us with that old sheep skin!† (The Three Little Pigs). Thereupon, the Wolf says, â€Å"I ll huff and I ll puff and I ll blow your house in† (The Three Little Pigs). The Wolf blows down Fiddler’s shanty, and Fifer and Fiddler evade the Wolf seeking refuge in Practical’s brick house.
