When the Goldilocks family leave their campsite to go on a hike, baby bear comes along and makes a mess of their food and belongings--because that is how bears roll.
This is a funny fractured folktale that flips the classic Goldilocks story on its head. Instead of Goldilocks invading the bears' home, this time a bear stumbles upon the Goldilocks family's campsite while they're away hiking.
You'll laugh out loud at this funny fractured folktale with pictures by a popular artist! The Goldilocks family leave their campsite to go on a hike while their s'mores cool off...when along comes Bear. "What's that yummy smell?" Bear wonders. S'mores, of course: too gooey, too chocolatey...and just right! Bear eats them all. Bear continues to wreak havoc by breaking a chair, smashing musical instruments, and extinguishing the fire. When the Goldilocks return, they are flabbergasted. They try to make a lot of noise to shoo away the bear...when Mama Bear and Papa Bear show up. Mama and Papa apologize profusely for the behavior of their naughty offspring, but the Goldilocks don't speak "Bear." They just hear a lot of LOUD GROWLING. So they decide to hightail it out of there, and the Bear family gets to enjoy the tents and snacks that are left behind. This hilarious story, a perfect readaloud, and its hilarious pictures, will delight children and parents alike.
