Now here's a turn up for the books. It would seem that children are to learn about the pitfalls of shoddy building work and cowboy builders.
The 'Three Little Cowboy Builders', published by Shoo Fly, is described as a 'darkly humorous version of The Three Little Pigs' and uses a 3D software tool to enable children to learn about ICT skills. It also allows pages to be printed out and a real three dimensional book to be created.
Text includes such gems as 'go to school make the grade, take advice and learn a trade'.
One of the cowboy builders appears to be a pig bricklayer, dressed in a string vest and a spotted bandana. What more can we say? Oh yeah, apparently it is really 'offensive' as the depiction of a pig cause 'cultural issues'.
What do you think?
