The duo performed The Web Files and an alternative version of The Three Little Pigs to students as a reward for their reading efforts during the WOW Reading Challenge taking place in elementary schools. The puppet show traveled to four schools in the Yarmouth area.

The wolf, not so big and bad in this version of the classic fairy tale, wants to borrow a cup of sugar from this little pig to make a birthday cake for his granny. The pig decides not to be very neighbourly -- much to the delight of this audience at Meadowfields Community School in Yarmouth.

Debbie Duke and Karen Comeau come out to greet students following their performance on Jan. 28.
