Marina Korsakova – The Three piglets in business. The big game (страница 4)

Fox’s eyes sparkled.

“Honorable jury, much respected Bear,” she said. “I have a suggestion. The piglets indeed have little experience… and, as we all witnessed yesterday, they don’t always take the task seriously. I suggest we make a deal. If the piglets finish their constructing on time and their house turns out to be the best, they get both the piggy bank and the title of Chief Builder. But if I win, they give the forest residents their own, wonderful, very cozy brick house!”

Bear thought for a moment. That made sense. He nodded.

“We agree!” the eldest piglet exclaimed for all of them, being overwhelmed with their first victory.

Junior and Middle stood next to him shoulder to shoulder. Despite the tough new terms, they had won the competition today and they were very pleased!

And Fox was also very, very pleased…

Future House Design

A rubber duck as a gift. – Will the antlers fit? – Comforting cinnamon curls. – Who’s a good boy? – The most important book is hidden in a safe place.

Now that the piglets’ participation in the competition was confirmed, they had to start with the main thing. And that was the planning of the future house.

That evening, after having the middle piglet’s apple pie (which was really quite perfect: sweet, crumbly, not at all soggy or burnt!), the three piglets opened a blank notebook and began to make notes.

“I think it should be a two-story house,” Biggie said.

The brothers agreed.

“Let’s make the rooms small, like ours, so we can accommodate more residents. We have a snug room which still fits three beds in it.”

The brothers agreed.

“And we need to put a bookcase in each room so that everyone can read and study,” Biggie said. “And everyone should have a desk!”

The brothers agreed.

“I think,” Middle said, “that we need a ig pantry on each floor. Or even two. To store pots, jam jars and acorn jelly. And a cupboard for dishes.”

The brothers agreed.
