5.0 out of 5 stars Jump at the Sun: Goldilocks and the Three Bears, March 14, 2007

Devette Douglas (ft collins, colorado United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jump at the Sun: Goldilocks and the Three Bears - Fairy Tale Classics (Jump at the Sun Fairy-Tale Classics) (Paperback)

This is a lovely book for a preschool aged child. It was very clever how the writer made the name Goldilocks applicable to a child of color. It has an underlying message that a child should obey their parents and be willing to do their chores.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book of morals and values, May 7, 2008

Claudette "Claudia" (Spartanburg, SC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Jump at the Sun: Goldilocks and the Three Bears - Fairy Tale Classics (Jump at the Sun Fairy-Tale Classics) (Paperback)

This was the best book I bought for my daughter. I love how the end of the story involves Goldilocks listening to her mother in regards to doing her chores, instead of the original story where she runs into the forest, leaving the Three Bears' place a mess. This special twist involves her actually staying to CLEAN UP the mess she had made. Wonderful! Better than the original story!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!!! Better than the traditional version!, July 28, 2007

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Jump at the Sun: Goldilocks and the Three Bears - Fairy Tale Classics (Jump at the Sun Fairy-Tale Classics) (Paperback)

This may be my favorite JATS fairy tale. The ending is a nice twist where Goldilocks learns an appropriate lesson without any scary consequences for breaking & entering the bears' cottage.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wasn't thrilled with this...
I didn't care for the the re-telling of the story. IMO, the author made the Goldilocks character a bit too cheeky/sassy for my taste.
