Goldilocks and the Three Bears by Emma Chichester Clark (Candlewick Press, 2010). As with James Marshall’s version, Ms. Clarks’ version has a distinct voice in the telling. Her Goldilocks is not as obnoxious as James Marshall’s, but she still deserves to be laughed at in the end (and to hide under her bed for a week). I liked the different representation of Goldilocks: she has straight hair instead of the traditional curls so many books portrayed her as having.
