The idea behind this book sounded interesting. There is a fair amount of text for a children's book, but the illustrations are nice. I would guess that it is targeted at ages 5-8 or so.
I, personally had some troublewith narwhals building houses underwater. My 3 year old could not get into it, my 9 year old said she thought it was kind funny.
If you are looking for a new take on the the little pigs, this magical themed story might be for you.
I nice twist on the three little pigs and how working together is good. Nice illustrations and using a more unusual animal like a narwhal leads to discussions about different animals.
ARC Copy...interesting aquatic take on the three pigs parable (who doesn't love narwhals?) and the cute illustrations would capture little kid's attention!
This adorable retelling of the Three Little Pigs fascinated my granddaughter. She loves sea creatures so using three narwhals and a big scary shark was perfect. We talked about the ship, not building the house right and how the narwhals worked together to stay safe. She and I both loved it and it was great for nap time reading.
Thank you NetGalley, Arcturs Publishing and Stewart Ross for the chance to read this book for a review.
This was a sweet story perfect for small kids and the whole family. Cute, fast read perfect before bedtime :)
I loved this remake of the classic Three Little Pigs Tale. A great message and the added sea and shark theme made it even better. My 3 year old son loved listening to this one and the illustrations were great as well.
This book has bright illustrations and an adorable new spin on a fairy tale classic. It has an excellent plot that teaches children the importance of not giving up.
This book would be a great addition to any home or classroom.
What a fantastic twist on the three little pigs! Fans of Octonauts will absolutely love these characters and their adventure. My 4yr old was hooked from the beginning and eager to see what would happen next as the story progressed. The only thing that would make it better is more pictures of the narwhals' houses
This is a retelling of the three little pigs and the big bad wolf.
In this telling, we have three narwhals Spike, Spiral and Stubby and a big bad shark.
Just like the original tale the three narwhals each build a house and the big bad shark tries to destroy the houses to eat the narwhals. Stubby is my favourite and there is a nice inclusion of a passing dolphin and her baby. Cute rhymes and beautiful illustrations.
I look forward to reading more of these retellings.
I received this book from Netgalley, the publishers Arcturus Publishing and the author, in exchange for an honest review.
What a wonderful twist on a classic fairytale! Instead of three little pigs and a big bad wolf, here's three little narwhals and a big bad shark. The underwater setting is great and I loved the twist it caused. The illustrations are great and I'm sure kids will love it. This would be absolutely perfect for a story time, it would be a blast for both adult and children's. Highly recommend!
This was a cute reproduction of the three little pigs. Three narwhal siblings use their imagination and creativity to build their own houses. The story emphasizes that appearances aren’t everything even though every wants to focus of the sparkly and shiny. The shark has his own catchy version of the big bad wolf’s poem. I liked the ending interaction with the shark, I think kids will really like the silly talk. It ends with a lesson that stresses the importance of teamwork. A very enjoyable rendition of an old classic.
This was my first time reading a book in this series. It takes fairy tales we all know and inserts a fun twist to breath some new life into it. "The Three Little Narwhals" is a take on The Three Little Pigs. Each Narwhal has it's own personality.Spike is outgoing and a total showoff, Spiral is very creative and Stubby is shy.
The Three come across a sunken ship and each chooses different things to build their homes out of. Along comes our big hungry Shark who replaces the wolf in this story. My kids all enjoyed the freshness and kept pointing out the differences to me.
I received an advanced copy of this story for free from NetGalley. This is my voluntary and honest review.
The Three Little Narwhals is a great version of the three little pigs. I loved the extra creativity written into the story. I would absolutely put this story in my classroom library.
I requested and received an advanced reading copy of this book from NetGalley.
I liked this adaptation of the Three Little Pigs. I love Narwhals and Sharks, so this combination works for me!
I liked that Stubby isn't necessarily smarter than the others it just so happens that the only material left, after the older siblings build their houses, is the strongest material.

I think all kids are fans of sharks and narwhals, especially in my preschool! And who doesn’t love a good retelling of The Three Little Pigs? This is a fun story with adorable illustrations and a good message. The ugliest house ended up being the strongest and last one standing. It was a good message for kiddos that, “looks aren’t everything.”
Thank you to NetGalley and Arcturus Publishing for this ARC.
Anything with Narwhals is a win and this is no exception. Super cute characters and story. Always here for a good fairy tale retelling
This is a very sweet retelling of The Three Little Pigs story. It has beautiful illustrations.
I liked that the story took place underwater because it made the story different from the original.
First of all I absolutely love the illustrations! The design and color is amazing. Second, I really enjoyed the story. It is a cute retelling of the Three Little Pigs. I thought the singing and jokes were fun. This is a great story to read to your little ones!
This is the 3rd book of the Twisted Tale I read to my 3 year old son. We really do enjoy this collection. I mainly love them for the twist on the original fairy tales.
Three Little Narwhals was a perfect addition to my child’s growing library of stories. A twist on the Three Little Pigs. Since he is obsessed with the sea and all the animals in them, it was a great story to read to him to capture his attention.
These are brilliant books to read as bedtime stories and for young readers who are just starting out and need to get their confidence up. It’s beautifully illustrated to explain the situation and easy to understand and point bits out.
I adore these books, 100% recommend to parents and young readers.
My kid started loving narwhals all of a sudden, so I was excited to find this book! It was “kind of” like Three Little Pigs but with a cute twist! My son gave it two thumbs up!
