Mo willems goldilocks6/12/2023 ![]() Children will note almost immediately that this version deviates wildly from the original as it is made clear that the dinosaur characters are not the innocent bears of the fairytale. The plot and setting remain familiar enough with three dinosaurs, three bowls of food, three chairs, three beds, a house, and a little girl in the woods, but this is where the similarities end. This snarky, humorous retelling of the classic fairytale offers a different take on the characters. Goldilocks makes her way to their house and is in for some big surprises. ![]() Mo Willems retells the classic Goldilocks and the Three Bears, but this time the bears are dinosaurs and they are not so innocent! Mama Dinosaur, Papa Dinosaur, and a dinosaur that is visiting from Norway make their beds, set out their chairs, cook “three bowls of delicious chocolate pudding at varying temperatures” and head out to Someplace Else. ![]() ![]() Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs. New York: HarperCollins, 2012. ![]()
