Books in STORY BOX series

Help make reading interactive. Goldilocks and the Three Bears is a classic tale that teaches manners and respect for others' property. The unique feature of the Story in a Box version of Goldilocks is the self-contained drawer in the back of the book that holds seven stand-up story characters and props. The sturdy cut-outs enable a child to retell the story in her own words or to make up a different story. There is a cut-out figure for Goldilocks, Mama Bear, Papa Bear and Baby Bear as well as a cutout for the table with the bowls of porridge, the three chairs and the three beds - all the essential components of the story. The stand-up story characters spark imagination and encourage creativity and story-telling skills. This new interactive reading concept is also appealing to a child who is a restless reader.
