🐷Los tres cerditos🐷

Había una vez tres cerditos que decidieron construir sus propias casas. El primero, perezoso pero rápido, hizo su casa de paja; el segundo, un poco más cuidadoso, usó madera; y el tercero, el más trabajador, construyó su casa con ladrillos. Un día, el lobo feroz llegó y sopló con fuerza la casa de paja, derribándola en segundos. El cerdito corrió a la casa de su hermano, pero el lobo también sopló y destruyó la de madera. Desesperados, los dos huyeron a la casa del tercer cerdito.

El lobo intentó soplar con todas sus fuerzas, pero la casa de ladrillos no se movió. Frustrado, intentó entrar por la chimenea, sin saber que el cerdito más astuto había encendido un caldero de agua hirviendo. Cuando el lobo cayó dentro, salió disparado y huyó, prometiendo nunca volver. Los tres cerditos celebraron su victoria y aprendieron que el esfuerzo y la dedicación siempre valen la pena.
