Goldilocks, 6 8 folktale: The Name-Fame-Dame
About this ebook
And she knows it.
Goldilocks thinks she can do anything she wants.
Breaking and entering? No problem.
Theft? No problem.
Damaging property? No problem.
Until…the glitzy-see neighbors are tick-tock-talking. And they decide to take action.
Will Goldilocks be able to use her fame-name to get out of trouble? Or will she wind up in folktale-jail?
This fun spoof on Goldilocks is rollicking with word play:
“Papa Troll clomped-stomped. ‘Someone ate my meal for real. It’s all woebegone-gone.’”
This retelling of the folk/fairy tale creates a children’s picture book that is sure to become a read-aloud classic.
