A simplified retelling of the adventures of a little girl walking in the woods who finds the house of the three bears and helps herself to their belongings. Includes a note on the history of the tale.
The illustrations in this book are exactly the kind of fairy tale world that I want to introduce my children's imagination to. I'm not familiar with [a:Gennady Spirin|119079|Gennady Spirin|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1303129765p2/119079.jpg], but after experiencing this story of [b:Goldilocks and the Three Bears|6353935|Goldilocks and the Three Bears|Gennady Spirin|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1355028767s/6353935.jpg|6540539] I definitely want to look at his backlist and future titles to come. Both the face of the little Goldilocks girl and the bears is very lifelike. It is as if real bears are wearing medieval clothing and sitting in chairs! It's enchanting and I wish there were a huge storybook to pour over with illustrations so classic in nature and imagination like this.
*Thanks to Amazon Vine for providing a copy for review.*
This is my first experience that I know of with a title from Marshall Cavendish Children's books, but after this I definitely hope to review more for them in the future with such quality books.
