Anonymous. (1853). The Fox and the Pixies. Anonymous. London, England: Ingram, Cook, and Company.
Annotation: The story of The Fox and the Pixies is an English version of The Three Little Pigs. It came from a book full of collective English folklore. Like other versions, the fox gets through the house of stone and wood, but cannot get through to pixie in its iron house. The fox tries to convince the pixie he wants to spend time with him, but the pixie's kind words are enough for the fox to end his life.
Readers who would like this: I think this could be a story for parents to read their young child at anytime during the day.
Grade Level: PreK-1st
Genre: Childrens Folklore
Ratings/Response: I give this story a 3. It wasn't as graphic as other versions and I think the end leaves the child to assume and not have to hear the word killing in the end of the story.
Question: How do you know when someone is lying or telling the truth?
