Everyone knows the story of “The Three Little Pigs and the Wolf”; a classic fairytale and a story to fall asleep when your mother or father reads it to you at night in bed. But the truth is that the real story was created by a child who loved candies and even more gummy bears.

Let´s start telling the real story called “The Story of The Four Little Gummy Bears and the Big Fat Boy” Why the real story was changed is a real mystery.

Once upon a time, in Candyland, there was a mother gummy bear who had four little baby gummy bears.

The four little gummy bears grew so big that their mother said to them, "You are too big to live here any longer. You must go and build houses for yourselves. But take care that the big fat boy does not catch you." The four little gummy bears set off. "We will take care that the bigfat boy does not catch us," they said.

As they were walking along Cookie Road they met a marshmallow manwho was carrying some sugar. "Please will you give me some sugar?" asked the first little gummy bear. "I want to build a house for myself." "Sure," said the marshmallow man, and he gave the first little gummy bear some sugar. He built himself a house out of melted sugar. He was very pleased with his house. He said, "Now

the boywon't catch me and eat me up!"

The second little gummy bear, the third little gummy bear and the fourth little gummy bearwent on walking along Cookie Road. Soon they met a chocolate man who was carrying some M&M´s. "Please will you give me some M&M`s?" asked the second little gummy bear. "I want to build a house for myself." "Sure" said the chocolate man and he gave the second little gummy bear some M&M´s. Then he built himself a house of M&M´s. It was stronger than the house of sugar. The second little gummy bear was very pleased with his house. He said, "Now the boy won't catch me and eat me up!"

The third little gummy bear and the fourth little gummy bear went on walking along Cookie Road. Soon they met a gingerbread man carrying some Laffy Taffy. "Please will you give me some Laffy Taffy?" asked the third little gummy bear.” I want to build a house for myself." "Sure," said the gingerbread man, and he gave the third little gummy bear some Laffy Taffy. Then he built himself a house of Laffy Taffy.

The third little gummy bear was very pleased with his house. He said, "Now theboy won’t catch me and eat me up!"

The fourth little gummy bearwent on walking along Cookie Road by himself. Soon he met a strawberry girl carrying somespinach.Spinach? How strange.“Please will you give me some spinach?” asked the fourthlittle gummy bear.” I want to build a house for myself." "Sure," said the

strawberry girl, and he gave the fourth little gummy bear some spinach. Then he built himself a house of spinach. It took him a long time to build it and he was very pleased with his house. He said, "Now the boy won’t catch me and eat me up!"

Some weeks passed and the big fat boywas walking alongCookie Road. He saw the house made of sugar and walked straight towards it. When the little gummy bear saw the boy coming, he ran into his house and shut the multicolor sugar door.

The boy knocked at the door and said "Little gummy bear, little gummy bear. Let me in!"

"No, no!" said the little gummy bear, "By the hair of my chinny chin chin, I will not let you in!"

"Then I'll crack and I'll crunch, and I'll eat your house down!" said the boy.

So he cracked and he crunched, and he cracked and he crunched, andthe house of sugar fell down.As the boy began licking the sugar the little gummy bear started running to the house of the brother who had built his house of M&M. The brother opened the door and they hugged and trembled.

Again the next day, the boy walked along Cookie Road.He saw the house made of M&M and walked straight towards it. When the littlegummy bears saw the boy coming, they ran into the house and shut the multicolor M&M door.

The boy knocked at the door and said,

"Little gummy bears, little gummy bears, Let me in!"

"No, no!" said the little gummy bears, "By the hair of our chinny chin chin, we will not let you in!"

"Then I'll crack and I'll crunch, and I'll eat your house down!" said the boy.

So he cracked and he crunched, and he cracked and he crunched. The house of M&M fell down.As the boy began eating the M&Ms the little gummy bears started running to the house of the brother who had built his house of Laffy Taffy. The brother opened the door and they hugged and trembled.

Again the next day, the boy walked along Cookie Road.He saw the house made of LaffyTaffy that the third little gummy bear had built. When the little gummy bears saw the boy coming, they ran into the house and they shut the multicolor Laffy Taffy door. The boy knocked at the door and said, "Little gummy bears, little gummy bears. Let me in!"

"No, no!" said the little gummy bears. "By the hair of our chinny chin chin, we will not let you in!"

"Then I'll crack and I'll crunch, and I'll eat your house down!" said the boy.

So he cracked and he crunched, and he cracked and he crunched and the house of Laffy Taffy fell down! As the boy began eating the Laffy Taffy the little gummy bears started running to the house of the brother who had built his house of spinach.This door was not a multicolor door. It was green. The boy knocked at the door and said, “Little gummy bears, little gummy bears. Let me in!"

"No, no!" said the little gummy bears. "By the hair of our chinny chin chin, we will not let you come in!"

“Then I'll crack and I'll crunch, and I'll eat your house down!" said the boy.

But in a minute he realized that the house was made of spinach. He hated spinach, he hated all vegetables! He was frustrated, he didn’t know what to do, and he was embarrassed. The boy ran down Cookie Road shouting and cursing. How sad, boys shouldn´t curse!

“I am coming back! I hate you little gummy bears, I really hate you!”

Since that day on,the four little gummy bears lived happily in their vegetable houses. One was made of carrots, the other of tomatoes, the other of broccoli and the one made of spinach. The four little gummy bears lived happily ever after.

The End!
