Three Little Pigs book 'offends Muslims'

A children's book based on the classic tale of the Three Little Pigs has been rejected for a UK award amid fears it could offend Muslims.

Judges for the Bett Awards criticised the animated virtual book, The Three Little Cowboy Builders, saying its use of pigs as the main characters raised "cultural issues".

They also believed the book could offend builders.

"Is it true that all builders are cowboys, builders get their work blown down, and builders are like pigs," the judges wrote.




"The idea of taking a traditional tale and retelling a story is fine, but it should not alienate parts of the workforce.

"Judges would not recommend this product to the Muslim community in particular."

Ann Curtis, whose company Shoo Fly Publishing produced the book, branded the judges' criticisms unjustified.

"I felt disbelief, to be honest," she told The Times newspaper.

"As a small company we have a strong ethical and moral grounding.

"To be told that we cynically set out to alienate minority groups is a very narrow-minded view."
