Second Little Pig gathered some twigs and small slats of old wooden crates he found along the side of the road. He had plenty of all-purpose glue. He also decided it would be a good idea to use a book of plans on how to build a hardware store. He would just substitute what he didn't have and he was certain the store would be just fine for his needs.

He decided to situate his store between a taco stand and a pet store! Second Little Pig had always loved tacos and he wanted a little chihuahua dog. Especially one that could speak English with a Mexican accent.

Second Little Pig began his work. He glued and glued and glued some more. When he felt the store was completed, he stood back to admire his work. It certainly looked great!

Second Little Pig ordered a taco and sat down to lunch. A little chihuahua crept up and sat beside him. Ahh, this was the life.

As Second Little Pig began to pour on the taco sauce, he heard a snuffle behind him.

He turned around and whom should he see but his brother calling out, "Oh brother, I'B id a terrible way! BY resistence iv bad because I've BED feeling so sad! BY hardware store is GOD...all GOD AD destroyed...AD I've GOD a very bad cold! ACHOO...ACHOO!

Second Little Pig felt the little hairs on his chin tingle when First Little Pig began to sneeze! He cried out in alarm,

"Don't come any nearer...don't sneeze. Please..."

But, too late, First Little Pig gave a huge sneeze and Second Little Pig's hardware store, was reduced to a pile of fire wood!
