review: Goldilocks and just the one bear by Leigh Hodgkinson


 

ISBN: 978-0857630445 (paperback)

Suggested age range: preschool-primary

Synopsis: In this modern version our friend the bear wanders into a big city and struggles to find some good porridge and a comfy bed with hilarious consequences.

Why we love it: The illustrations have a lovely collage quality, the pages are really busy with lots of things to talk about and some little extras not mentioned in the story. It's funnier if you know the original story, so we'd recommend you tell your little one both.

Illustrative style: quirky, modern, funny. The author also had fun playing with handdrawn type which looks great!









Available from Waterstones.
