Reviews

K-Gr 3-In this continuation of the familiar tale, Goldilocks falls down a rabbit hole after running away from the Bears' house and injures her foot. She's an unwanted guest at the Hares', as she's big and bossy and spoiled. Even something simple like asking for a blanket gets complicated. "Too scratchy. Too itchy. Too big. Too little. Too hot. Way too skimpy! Actually, I prefer cashmere." The Hares try their best to get rid of her, even inviting their friend Sherman Skunk to visit. But it takes something a little more intimidating to make her leave, which of course she eventually does. There's a nice little grace note at the end involving an English girl named Alice. The fast-paced plot, mild gross-out details (she drools while she naps on their couch), and funny language will keep readers entertained. The colorful cartoon pictures offer lots of visual humor and interest as well. Overall, a fun and lighthearted story.-Lauralyn Persson, Wilmette Public Library, IL (c) Copyright 2011.
