    About this ebook

    The Three Little Pigs is a fable about three pigs who build three houses of different materials. A Big Bad Wolf blows down the first two pigs' houses, made of straw and sticks respectively, but is unable to destroy the third pig's house, made of bricks. Printed versions date back to the 1840s, but the story itself is thought to be much older. The phrases used in the story, and the various morals drawn from it, have become embedded in Western culture. Many versions of The Three Little Pigs have been recreated and modified over the years, sometimes making the wolf a kind character.

    Flora Annie Steel (2 April 1847 – 12 April 1929) was an English writer, who lived in British India for 22 years. She was noted especially for books set or otherwise connected with the sub-continent.

    Flora Annie Steel

    Flora Annie Steel (1847-1929) was an English writer. Born in Middlesex, she married Henry William Steel, a member of the Indian Civil Service, in 1867. Together they moved to India, where they lived for the next two decades. During her time in the Punjab, a region in the north of the Indian subcontinent, Steel developed a deep interest in the life of its native people. Befriending local women, she learned their language and collected folk tales—later published in Tales of the Punjab (1894)—while advocating for educational reform. After moving home to Scotland with her family in 1889, Steel began working on her novel On the Face of the Waters (1896) an influential work of historical fiction set during the Indian Mutiny of 1857.
