Book Overview

"Once upon a time, there lived a little girl named Goldilocks, who was very, very good, except that sometimes she forgot to do things that her mother told her to do. Yes she did... "
But worse is when she forget's not to do what she is told not to do. For sometimes that can lead to much more serious trouble....like what happened the day of this story. McClintock's art, that is reminscent of 19th Century children's book art, perfectly compliments...

So cute and compelling!

I absolutely adore this book because it harkens back to the Victorian era, both in illustrations and in language. It is witty and moral, without being preachy. There are several really nice personal touches throughout the book that bring the characters to life. My 4 year old daughter really fell in love with this book and often refers back to it during her imaginative play! Well done!

Incredible Classic!

This is a beautiful Goldilocks book with the most amazing illustrations you will find anywhere! Illustrations make or break a book for me, and this one does not disappoint. My daughter is almost 3 and wants to hear this story over and over, and I love to read it to her. VERY highly recommended!!

The Perfect, Traditional Goldilocks

Traditional tales like Goldilocks are a great way to expose young children to language. It can be difficult to find traditional versions of classic folktales with good illutstrations. My three-year old loves this version of Goldilocks and is totally engrossed in the detailed illustrations every time we read this book.

Wonderful Rendition of a classic

I must admit it was the illustrations that lured me into purchasing this book and am now a real fan of Ms. McClintock. Somewhat reminiscent in style of the Victorian Illustrator and cartoonist for PUNCH, Sir John Tenniel of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" fame. Now if only this duo would do Grimm's "Hansel and Gretel" all would be right with the world! It would be so nice to see more illustrators such as Ms. McClintock give a child's imagination something from which they may take pleasure. I think we may see this illustrator follow in the path of such illustrious names as Kate Greenaway, Anne Andersen, Gennady Spirin, etc.! Bravo and many thanks!
