The story of The Three Little Pigs concludes with the Big Bad Wolf being outsmarted and vanquished by the cleverest of the pigs.
The Climax in the Brick House
After failing to blow down the third pig's sturdy brick house, the Big Bad Wolf attempted a final desperate measure. He decided to climb down the chimney, hoping to surprise and devour the pig inside.
However, the resourceful little pig was prepared for this trick:
- Quick Thinking: The pig quickly lit a fire in the fireplace.
- Boiling Trap: A large kettle of water was placed directly on the fire to boil.
- The Wolf's Plunge: As the wolf descended the chimney, he fell directly into the scalding water with a loud SPLASH!
The Wolf's Retreat and the End of Troubles
The hot water proved to be too much for the Big Bad Wolf. He immediately sprang out of the kettle and, in pain and fear, ran away as fast as he possibly could. This dramatic exit marked the end of the little pigs' troubles with the Big Bad Wolf, leaving them safe and sound in their home.
