She returns to the Bears’ house, anxious to make amends – but it turns out she hasn’t learned her lesson after all. Goldilocks is all grown up, regrets what she did as a girl, and has created a business selling locks and keys. Goldilocks Returns, by Lisa Campbell Ernst The story is funny, the illustrations are adorable, and Baby Bear’s comments are hilarious. Somebody is a little bear who explores the home of the three Blairs (Papa Blair, Mama Blair, and Baby Blair). Somebody and the Three Blairs, by Marilyn Tolhurst When he finds himself in a posh high rise apartment, he tries the food, chairs, and bed … only to discover that the golden-haired mistress of the house is someone he’s met before! At the beginning of the book we meet a large bear lost in the city. Goldilocks and Just One Bear, by Leigh Hodgkinson Brett’s books can be a bit too text-heavy, but this one is just right (get it? ha ha). I like this twist on the familiar story, as the three bears live in an Igloo, and it’s an Inuit girl named Aloo-ki who discovers their home. If you are looking for a new twist, skip it. If you have a listener who loves studying elaborate illustrations, this is the book for you. But her illustrations are truly a work of art. Brett adds nothing to the familiar story. Honestly, the text in this book is too familiar. Goldilocks and the Three Bears, by Jan Brett It’s a fun book with just the right amount of text. The silly twist is that she eats the things she finds … including the littlest bear’s bowl and spoon, his chair, and his bed (plus the blanket, two pillows, and a pair of pajamas). Goatilocks is a little kid (get it? ha ha) who lives down the road from a family of bears. This book gets the prize for funniest story and cutest illustrations. Goatilocks and the Three Bears, by Erica S. When the bears discover her, she lets out a scream (a perfect high C!) and becomes the new lead singer.
She breaks the microphone, finds the perfect headset, and falls asleep (drooling) on the keyboard. Meanwhile, Goldilocks discovers their empty house. They audition everyone (including the three little pigs and Little Red Riding Hood), but no one has the right pitch. In this modern version, the Three Bears are looking for a lead singer for their rock band. Goldi Rocks and the Three Bears, by Corey Rosen Schwartz and Beth Coulton Challenge your students to help you write the text! I like the setting (the American frontier days) and the expressive illustrations. This is a wordless picture book in which a baby bear stumbles upon a log cabin. Instead of running out of the house, Goldilocks makes the beds, mends the chair, and offers her blueberries for a batch of blueberry muffins. The story continues in the traditional way until the bears return home. “Forgetting her manners,” she walks right in. While picking blueberries, Goldilocks stumbles on the three bears’ home. This is a beautiful book with a fresh ending to the traditional story. While the story didn’t especially grab us, it’s a fun new take. Instead, the bears live in a dirty cabin (with leaves and fish bones on the floor), eat porridge filled with beetles and bark, and sleep in beds made of leaves, pine needles, and bird feathers. When Goldilocks finds the bears’ home, there’s no tidy cottage. If you’d like a new perspective on the traditional story, this is a good one to check out. The 3 Bears and Goldilocks, by Margaret Willey Today’s list is a fun one … Goldilocks and the Three Bears! Fun versions of Goldilocks & the Three Bears We’ve shared a variety of collections featuring familiar tales in our book lists. It’s so much fun to explore different versions of familiar tales! They’re also great for building the skills of comparing/contrasting.
