Fifer Pig, Fiddler Pig and Practical Pig are three brothers who build their own houses with bricks, sticks and straw respectively. All three of them play a different kind of musical instrument. Fifer and Fiddler build their straw and stick houses with ease and have fun all day. Practical, on the other hand, "has no chance to sing and dance for work and play don't mix," focusing on building his strong brick house.

A Disney animation made during the Depression based on the classic folk tale. The first and second little pigs build their houses quickly and go out to play, while the third toils to construct a substantial dwelling.When the big bad wolf comes, he blows the first and second pigs' houses down. They escape to the safety of the third pig's sturdy house and thwart the wolf's evil intentions. Includes the popular theme song Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf.

The traditional story is retold in characteristic Disney fashion with music forming the dialogue.
