In the story, "The Three Little Pigs," the theme is sometimes the underdog wins. An example of this is, "Boy were the pigs happy, they quickly tied up the wolf." This is important because the less powerful, yet highly intelligent pigs were able to conquer the mighty and terrifying wolf. Furthermore, when the underdogs think thoroughly through their decisions it leads to success. Another example of the theme appears "To get rid of the him forever, they flushed him down the toilet.” This is important because the the pigs were so ecstatic that they defeated the wolf, they went a little overboard.

One story that can be directly compared across cultures is The Three Little Pigs, originating in England, where it was first printed in the 1840s, but the story dates back much further. In the original English version, the first two little pigs are devoured by the big bad wolf, who is finally outwitted by the last pig who lures the wolf down the chimney into a pot of boiling water. The Japanese version, however, ends with the same fate for the wolf, but differs greatly in how the wolf reaches that fate. Unlike the English version where the third pig outwits the wolf on his own, the Japanese version tells of how the first two pigs escaped their flimsy homes and worked together with the third little pig to defeat the wolf.
That theme is that there’s nothing holding you back but yourself. The way that the passage from the novel, “Boy’s Life”, has that theme is when it’s almost summer break, but his teacher is holding in the class. After a while the teacher lets them go, but keeps in Cory to talk to him about a writing contest. He just shouldn’t have been stubborn and talked to her because she was going to let him go, but he just kept on shrugging his shoulder and not answering her. He finally caught up to it and realized that he should respond so he can get out and start his break. However, “Emancipation: A Life Fable”, shows the theme is that when the animal saw the door open it wanted to leave to get out into the world, but it was holding itself back and stayed in the cage for a period of time. One it saw more and more light it finally one day decided to leave. The animal was holding its own self back if it just wanted to go it
An example of this would be like Batman versing Joker. Batman defeats him but there will always happen to be something else that is causing trouble. Because of Grendel’s mother, Beowulf had to gain any information he could over her, thus including her location. Beowulf attacks, wins, and celebrates. Celebration for heroes contain many treasures and gifts that are bestowed upon him. Celebration is the portion of a quest everyone looks forward too. For example, in the Lord of the Rings, Frodo finally is able to destroy the ring which was causing all the trouble to be possible. After this long struggle a huge celebration was needed. The celebration allows heroes to feel good about themselves and be rewarded for what they have accomplished.

I found a theme that carried throughout the whole book, Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins. This is the story about Katniss Everdeen and how she got drafted to fight twenty-three others in an arena. She must go through many struggles to end up winning, along with her new lover, Peeta. One simple theme, perseverance, runs throughout the whole book. The complex lesson the story suggests is that perseverance, emotional or physical, not only helps one, but helps others and causes them to persevere as well.
The theme is the central idea of the story that is inferred by the reader from details in the story.

The theme of success in Glory comes from the success

Recently three little pigs have moved onto my land. All three of them are building houses and displaying their stupidity to me because one of them is already done and my mouth is watering. The other one finished the next day, I have been waiting for the third one so I can pick them off one by one. The third pig is relatively smart because unlike his two friends he chose to build his out of brick, his two friends built theirs out of straw and sticks and it looks like I could easily blow them down with my breath. The two pigs that finished their terribly build houses are now playing together while the third pig continues to work very hard on his brick house. If I can’t blow down his brick house I’ll be satisfied with two pigs instead of three.
