Goldilocks Returns

Written and Illustrated by Lisa Campbell Ernst

More than fifty years later, Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Baby Bear still live together in the cottage.  Baby Bear still lives with his parents and STILL has a WEE little voice due to the fright Goldilocks caused many years ago.

Goldilocks, now Goldi, is the owner of a shop that helps protect others from snoops.  She STILL has horrible nightmares about her horrid behavior with the bears.

Setting out to right the wrongs she caused over 50 years ago, Goldi causes more chaos and disorderly confusion than ever before.  What is a bear family to do the second time around???? 

Ideas and Activities:

Enter the classroom dressed like an elderly lady (glasses, pearls, knit hat). On one arm have a bag of nutritious food and have a tool belt around the waist.  The students will definitely want to know what is going on and want to know what exciting book they are about to hear.  Have the students decide if Goldi fixed the situation or if she caused more problems for the bears.
