"A funny, creative take on a well-known fairy tale." Kirkus reviewHave you heard of Goldilocks?Of course, you have! She's the name-fame-dame. That long-strong, bold-gold hair has earned her an international reputation.And she knows it.Goldilocks thinks she can do anything she wants.Breaking and entering? No problem.Theft? No problem.Damaging property? No problem.Until…the glitzy-see neighbors are tick-tock-talking. And they decide to take action.Will Goldilocks be able to use her fame-name to get out of trouble? Or will she wind up in folktale-jail?This fun spoof on Goldilocks is rollicking with word play:"Papa Troll clomped-stomped. 'Someone ate my meal for real. It's all woebegone-gone.'"
