A beautifully illustrated version of this classic story also adds a clear lesson in manners! Goldilocks, a little girl travelling with a circus, wanders off into the woods on her own. When she finds a lovely house, she enters without thinking. She sits in the chairs, eats the porridge and then settles down for a comfy sleep in the littlest bed. The bears are forgiving but can’t help asking why she didn’t knock and why she entered without being invited in. It’s a lesson Goldilocks will hopefully remember.
When Goldilocks gets lost in the woods, she discovers a pretty house where everything comes in three sizes; big, medium and very little! Who could live here? And what will happen when they find Goldilocks sleeping in their house?
