July 2016 - some of the humor (especially in the illustrations) was lost on Ben, but he got into it and really got the story this time. So many funny details!

Cute. Reader is not annoying. My 4 year old would rather look at a picture book instead of listen to an audio.

Summary: Once upon a time, a naughty little girl named Goldilocks stuck her nose where it didn't belong. She didn't wonder. She didn't ask. She walked straight into the Three Bears' house and made herself at home. Disgusting and cold she proclaimed of a bowl of porridge. Awful she groaned, sinking into a too-soft chair. Bullseye she cried, snuggling up in a bed that was just as right as right could be. And then the bears came back. . . . With humor and warmth, Emma Chichester Clark brings new life to a much-loved fairy tale. (Thanks powells.com)

This is bad. It looks like one of those very cheap cartoons. It is a faithful retelling of the story, but done poorly. I don’t understand how this won the honor, honestly. It screams cheap. It’s a classic and there should be something about it to make it shine and there isn’t. This is another Caldecott Honor that I really don’t like and I don’t think it fits the list. It diminishes the list.
The one thing I will say that I enjoyed about this, is that each room in the bears house was piled with books. Books surrounded papa’s chair and they were around each bed and books were piled all over Little Bears bed. I could get behind that. That is the only thing keep me from giving this 1 star.
The niece didn’t really like this either. She asked what was wrong with Goldilocks. She gave this 1 star. The nephew liked the bears and he gave this 2 stars.
