The Three Little Pigs: An Architectural TaleYou know the old story about the Three Little Pigs? Well here's an updated version with the pigs as architects.

One pig builds a house made of scraps (the Gehry House by Frank Gehry), another pig builds a house made of glass (the Glass House by Philip Johnson), and the third pig cleverly constructs a house made of stone and concrete (Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright).

What does it all mean? Never mind. Author/illustrator Steven Guarnaccia has created a charming book for design-minded tots.
