The Three Little Javelinas by Susan Lowell

The Three Little Javelinas by Susan Lowell

Everyone knows the story of the three little pigs, but now you're going to meet the three little javelinas (pronounced ha-ve-LEE-nas)-loveable, wild, southwestern cousins of pigs. Living in homes built out of tumbleweeds and saguaro ribs (from the fallen giant cacti), the first two javelinas are soon running from the hungry coyote, who had hoped to eat them with red chile sauce. And where do they go for shelter? Why, to their wise sister's house, made strong with adobe bricks. This clever and humorous tale is sure to delight children of all ages, especially those familiar with the Southwest. Dressed in cowboy duds and prepared for life in the rugged desert, these characters are more than any coyote bargained for.

Susan Lowell's ancestors have lived in the American West since the days of the Gold Rush. She is the author of several children's picture books, including The Three Little Javelinas, a Reading Rainbow Book, and The Bookmaker and the Elves, a Spur Award winner from the Western Writers of America. I Am Lavina Cumming and The Boy with the Paper Wings are two of her novels for older children. Her family splits their time between Tucson, Arizona, and a ranch near the Mexican border, where she and her husband live with their two girls.
