Goldilocks and Just One Bear

32 pp. | Candlewick/Nosy Crow | August, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-6172-4 $15.99
(4) K-3 In this retelling of Goldilocks set in a fancy high-rise, the interloper is a bear and the homeowners are humans. The writing strains for originality ("All that whooshy traveling was certainly a hungry business"), but there are good visual gags and a neat surprise: the bear ultimately realizes that the stylish mom is actually the original Goldilocks all grown up.
