Beschreibung des Verlags
F is for Forest. While their porridge cooled, the bears walked in the forest, where they sniffed fragrant flowers. The classic tale of Goldilocks and the Three Bears meets the alphabet in this fairy-tale-meets-concept-book story. Grace Maccarone cleverly alliterates Goldilocks' tale from A to Z.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears gets an abecedarian twist, courtesy of Maccarone and Hibbert. Goldilocks, who has bronzed skin and wavy blonde hair, approaches the bears' home when they are away: "H is for house. Goldilocks saw the bears' happy house in the forest. I is for inside, where Goldilocks went." Ample alliteration helps underscore the alphabet concept, but Hibbert's digital illustrations are oddly soft-edged and fuzzy; it's almost like watching a 3D movie without the glasses slightly dizzying. Despite the novel structure of this retelling, the prose has a flatness that drains the story of any real excitement, and Goldilocks's interactions with the bears provide no real surprises. Ages 4 7.
