First and foremost, a large thank you to NetGalley, Stewart Ross and Arcturus Publishing for providing Neo and me with a copy of this publication, which allows me to provide you with an unbiased review.

As my son, Neo, and I love receiving and reviewing all sorts of books, we thought we would try some of these twisted fairy tales. Stewart Ross has penned this interesting tale that resembles one that children will know very well, but with a nautical twist. When three little narwhals watch a pirate ship sink to the bottom of the ocean, they get an excellent idea; they will take the scraps left over to build themselves houses. As the eldest, Spike gets first pick of the supplies. While his house looked mighty ‘cool’, there were some issues, particularly when a large (and very hungry) shark comes over to find a meal. Barely able to slip away, Spike makes his way over to his sister’s new abode. Spiral makes her house much more pleasing to the eye, but has some issues all her own, which leads the shark to come and try to dine on the two of them. In a panic, Spike and Spiral rush over to their little brother’s place. Stubby was stuck with only the leftovers, making his house with whatever he could gather. The shark is back and hungry as ever, but this could be the toughest lunch he’s ever had to catch. How will Stubby’s house hold up against the power of a jaw filled with sharp teeth? Ross does a wonderful job with this piece, entertaining his readers until the very end.

After giving it some thought, Neo liked that there was a loose parallel to The Three Little Pigs, but that the story proved to be a little different, adding some mystery to the overall experience. Ross is able to build a great foundation for the piece before going along with the traditional two houses of lacklustre quality and one that holds firm. Neo quite enjoyed the side commentary from a family of dolphins as they watched the antics of these three narwhals, particularly the honesty of the baby. The illustrations added something really effective to the story, keeping the reader interested as they make their way through the reading experience. The book was just long enough to serve as a bedtime story or one to fill the time, though Neo feels that it might not be ideal for the young or learning reader to tackle themselves quite yet. Still, it is a wonderful way for a child and the reader to spend some quality time together.

Kudos, Mr. Ross, for a great spin on a classic story!

Spike, Spiral, and Stubby the Three Little Narwhals. Each make their own house out of the wreckage of a ship. And then the big mean shark comes along to eat them up.

This was cute retelling of the Three Little Pigs. Super cute and enjoyable.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

Another great twisted fairy tale in the series!
This book is a spin on the classic Three Little Pigs tale, replaced by three little Narwhals and set under the sea.
Instead of the big bad wolf, there is a big bad shark.
I love this series, its fun, its different and the language and artwork used is great!
Kids will love this book and it will create many different topics to talk about with them from the tale.

Cute take on the classic tale of the three little pigs. The narwhals were very cute. My daughter seemed to enjoy it. Made a nice bed time story.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This is an adorable retelling of The Three Little Pigs featuring narwhals and a very hungry shark. The illustrations are precious and I think young kids will get a kick out of it.

Let me introduce to you The Three Little Narwhals by Stewart Ross which is a Twisted Fairy Tale based on the The Three Little Pigs which I got via Netgalley and I found it to be a breath of fresh air. Again the illustrations were of a high standard and really made this book so much enjoyable and way more entertaining than the original story and I feel that children and adults alike would get a lot more out of these books. So I have to give this wonderful book 5 stars.

Twisted Fairy Tales: The Three Little Narwhals is a quick, cute read, and I thank NetGalley for the chance to read an advanced copy. While the drawings are well done, they aren’t as captivating as other fairy tale retellings. The same can be said for the text - it’s solid, but not excellent. That said, the story is simple and fun, and it certainly has a place in libraries and classrooms. A familiar tale that families can easily enjoy.

This is a kids tale about three little whales.
One day they find a shipwreck and decide to make their homes from it.
They fight with each other and take different ship parts for their homes.
But a shark comes to eat their homes and brothers.
Writing is simple with rhyming like poems in between with repitition of dialogues.
Artwork is excellent with soothing and vivid use of colors.
A little fable to teach value of cooperation and helping each other.
Thanks netgalley and publisher for review copy.

This was a very cute children’s book with a twist on the three little pigs. It’s told with narwhals, dolphins and a big bad shark. I’d recommend it to any three little pig lovers out there! A cute read!

Another fun story in the Twisted Fairy Tales series. This time based on the 3 Little Pigs. We enjoyed the characters in this story and the underwater setting was a hit with my 5 year old. This made a great bed time story.

Modern twist on the Three Little Pigs classic!

Spikey, Spiral and Stubby are three narwhals that find a sunken ship. They decide to use the ship to build their own houses. One by one, the big, bad shark comes to their homes in search of lunch and the narwhals must use their wit and speed to escape.

This story is of course well known but felt more “chic” with the underwater world. The language was age appropriate but also challenging enough to spark discussion and give young readers room to grow.

This is a cute take on the classic story of the three little pigs starring a shark as the big bad wolf and three narwhals. My kids loved it especially my five year old!

I just reviewed Twisted Fairy Tales: The Three Little Narwhals by Stewart Ross. #NetGalley

A twisted story about three narwhals instead of pigs, in a sea, of course. But with the same moral of the story. So if you're bored already with Three Little Pigs, this one is a nice twisted one.

This was a very cute twist on the Three Little Pigs. The Narwhal siblings find a sunken pirate ship, strip it, and each builds a different kind of home from it's parts. I particularly enjoyed the dolphin family. Kids will laugh and cheer for this story.

This is the first book I've read from the Twisted Fairy Tales series. I like the concept of taking a classic fairy tale like The Three Little Pigs and twisting it up a bit. I like that the story was set under the sea and I thought the illustrations were nice but overall the execution of the story wasn't for me.

Who doesn’t love a cute little narwhal? This story was precious, it was a new take on three little pigs and it was adorable.

I loved that they used a sunken ship to build the houses, very creative idea and each one was different, I loved that it teaches creativity right away. There were so many educational things throughout this book and many things you can use to teach children from.

The characters were cute and drawn perfectly each with a different type of horn, the dolphins were so cute too. I enjoyed reading this little story and think it’s would be a great book to read with young children it’s a fun story, great art work, offers a lot of lessons and it features the cutest narwhals.

Thanks to NetGalley & Arcturus publishing for this being available as a read now ebook to review.

My daughter loved this book! It took a very long time to open, but otherwise once it did, she read through it quickly. She loved how it took a normal fairy tale and jazzed it up.

In a time when narwhals, the unicorns of the sea, are all the rage with today's youth - Stewart Ross brings to life a family of narwhals in The Three Little Narwhals and makes a splash! By taking notes from classic Three Little Pigs and reimagining it under the sea with a few aquatic twists to make this a unique tale, kids will fall in love with Spike, Spiral, and Stubby as they build their homes from a sunken pirate ship. The bad guy? A toothy shark!

In a book that is a perfect bedtime story length and with an ending that won't give anyone fears of the ocean or nightmares, it is a win! This beautifully illustrated tale will easily become one to read over and over and over without too much protest by the grown ups!

Thoughts from the Mini-Me-Reviewer: "It was a good! You should always build a strong house on a strong foundation! I loved that it was narwhals and instead of a wolf it was a shark!"

Young readers will love this twisted fairy tale. My kids enjoyed the story being about narwhals and a shark instead of the three little pigs. Such a fun and cute story.

I really liked this twisted fairy tale! I laughed out loud a few times and enjoyed the illustrations.
