Books with title Goldilocks and the three bears: Retold in rhyme

A wry retelling of the classic tale about a bold and very particular girl plays out in lighthearted illustrations filled with intricate details.Once upon a time, a naughty little girl named Goldilocks stuck her nose where it didn’t belong. She didn’t wonder. She didn’t ask. She walked straight into the Three Bears’ house and made herself at home. "Disgusting and cold!" she proclaimed of a bowl of porridge. "Awful!" she groaned, sinking into a too-soft chair. "Bullseye!" she cried, snuggling up in a bed that was just as right as right could be. And then the bears came back. . . . With humor and warmth, Emma Chichester Clark brings new life to a much-loved fairy tale.

We all know that Goldilocks has a lot to say about the Three Bears. Everything they have is either too hot or too cold or too big or too lumpy or too hard or too soft or too completely, absolutely wrong. Only one of them can get anything right! Just right, that is. But have you ever wondered, even for the littlest mini-second, what the Three Bears think about her? Well, it turns out those bears have a thing or two, or three, to say... Margaret Willey turns this fav-orite classic upside down...because there's always another side to the story....

Just like Baby Bear's porridge and bed, this simple retelling of a timeless favorite is JUST RIGHT for the very young.

But what will happen when the bears return? Sebastien Braun's charming art and simple text make this version a delight for little ones.

A retelling of the classic fairy tale for 21st century youngsters by a master storyteller.
