Banished

Posted on Categories short story, Uncategorized

Contrary to the mainstream version of the three little pigs story, the wolf had no interest in eating the pigs. His plan, however less gruesome was still devious; he banished them to desolation behind fortified doors.

Piggy: bedmate to Lazarus

Piggylyt: floor manager robbers den.

Piggylyte: Lab assistant Merseyside morgue.

One can only imagine the chaos that ensued with the words

Lazarus come forth!

Open sesame!

And the knock knock joke by the coroner!

It was all oinks and shrieks.

As for Mr fox his inept spells has him trapped in Piggylyte stone fortress lost forever in fairytale land.

Welcome to my blog, Its lovely to have you here! I am Chioma and I like to think of myself as an avid reader and a non biased writer.I got married and joined my partner to start our own little new home miles away from family (*tears*). what are my ideologies: I am a strong advocate for maintaining balance and modesty in every area of life. I believe everyone is entitled to their opinions but they should never be forced on another. I strongly agree that you are allowed to shout your views at the top of your lungs, just as I am allowed to totally ignore them. However it is my belief that in order to create a home far from the familiar environment one must make certain compromises. Not compromises that change who you are or your principles but those that allow you live at peace with the neighbours. That said, I hope my page brings a whole new perspective to living under a whole new climate. Thank you.

  9. Creative and thoughful. Makes me think of the reworked fairytale from school “The True Story of The Three Little Pigs.” This same writer did several of these types of fairytales. Wish I could remember his name.

      1. Here I did find the children’s book on Amazon. As kids my brothers and other kids I knew, literally begged the teacher to read these. So if you’re a Mom or an Aunt they’re great for kids, but entertaining for adults as well. Here’s the link, to:

        “The True Story Of The Three Little pigs by John Scieszka
        https://www.amazon.ca/True-Story-Three-Little-Pigs/dp/0140544518

        Also, the same writer did a few books in his re-telling of Fairytales. here’s another great one:

        “The Stinky Cheeseeman and Other Fairly Stupid Tales”

        https://www.amazon.ca/Stinky-Cheese-Man-Fairly-Stupid/dp/067084487X/ref=pd_bxgy_14_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=RWPQ0TZRHBYYVP2ZZD0H

        Enjoy 🙂
