The classic story  is given  a few twists, as the three little wolves have to contend with the treacherous big bad pig. The three little wolves erect first a solid brick house. The big bad pig comes along and when huffing and puffing fails to work, he uses a sledgehammer to bring the house down. Next they build a home of concrete: The pig demolishes it with his pneumatic drill. The three little wolves choose an even stronger design next time round: They erect a house, made of steel, barbed wire, armor plates and video entry system, but the pig finds a way to demolish it too. It is only when the wolves construct a rather fragile house made of cherry blossoms, daffodils, pink roses, and marigolds that the pig pauses to smell the lovely scent, has a change of heart, undergoes a radical transformation, and becomes a big good pig. The wolves invite the pig inside the house and the story ends with a party with strawberries and wolfberies.
