The story begins with the title characters being sent out into the world by their mother, to seek out their fortune. The first little pig builds a house of straw, but a wolf blows it down and he runs as fast as he can to his brother. The second pig builds a house of furze sticks, which the wolf also blows down and the pigs run to the third brother's house. The third pig builds a house of bricks. The wolf fails to blow down the house. He then attempts to trick the pig out of the house by asking to meet him at various places, but he is outwitted each time. Finally, the wolf resolves to come down the chimney, whereupon the pig catches the wolf in a cauldron of boiling water, slams the lid on, and cooks, and then eats him. (www.wikipedia.org)
