Goldilocks & The Three Bears

Goldilocks was always warned, "Don't go into the forest. It's full of big scary bears." However, the curious young girl ventured into the woods regardless. This lively picture book retells the popular fairy tale, accompanied by the colourful illustrations of Mike and Carl Gordon, taken from the acclaimed "First Reading" series.

Upon entering the cozy cottage of the three bears, she discovers three bowls of porridge, three chairs, and three beds, each varying in size. Unable to resist the temptation, Goldilocks tries them all, eventually settling into the smallest chair and falling asleep in the littlest bed.

The return of the three bears, Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and Baby Bear, sets the stage for a comical confrontation. Startled by the unexpected intruder, the bears investigate their home, only to find the remnants of Goldilocks' mischief.
