Ilustration To Books The Three Robbers

The three robbers live in the forest. With their blunderbuss, their pepper spray and their huge axe, they hold up travellers and plunder them of their goods. They have accumulated a gigantic horde of gold in their cave.

One day, they stop a carriage but there's no gold inside, only a little orphan girl called Tiffany. They take her back to the cave, where she promptly begins to charm them with her cute ways.

Tiffany asks them what they're planning to do with the gold. They'd never thought of actually spending it! But they soon agree that it would make more sense to buy a castle. They get good terms, since they can pay cash. Tiffany loves living in the castle. After a while, other orphans hear about it and manage to get themselves kidnapped too. In the end, the robbers, now thoroughly reformed characters, are the patrons of a thriving little town of former orphans and very popular.

Moral: laissez-faire capitalism is more effective than socialism as a method of wealth redistribution, but only in fairy stories.

Criticism Appertaining To Books The Three Robbers
Reason for Reading: I love Tomi Ungerer as an illustrator; I love this book in particular and this qualifies as my "U" author for the A-Z challenge.The publisher's summary certainly tells the story in probably as many words as are used in the book! This is a simple tale and one with a rather ambiguous ending. Not sure if I'm entirely comfortable with it. The robbers who are indeed "fierce", with a gun, spend their lives as criminals. A little girl captures their heart and they turn good, But is

Read this for my little cousin and omg it almost made ME cry. It's an amazing story and I think it made me more emotional than my cousin.

This is a childrens picture book about three robbers who steal many and various goods from their community. One day they encounter a young girl and her influence leads them to change their ways.

A lovely tale about three robbers who eventually save a plethora of orphans and found a town. Low key redemption tale.

Wow! This story looks and feels so modern! I couldn't believe it is nearly 50 years old! The illustrations are simple, bold, and engaging. The story is whimsical and timeless.

October 2018 - Ben had seen the Scholastic video adaptation, and then discovered a longer one on Netflix, so he was excited to see the book. I love the illustrations, and he seems to dig the slightly sinister vibe (and happy ending).

I "read" this book for the first time when I was too young to even read. And I loved the pictures. The robbers' design is just fantastic and I still love it.
