Retelling of Goldilocks and the three bears. Enjoyable. I always enjoy Mo Willems books.
Clever book with Goldilocks obliviously doing her thing with the stuff of 3 scheming dinosaurs. Humorous writing and illustrations.
This book is hilarious. I can't believe I've never come across it (we love Mo in our family). We will read it again and again. I can't wait to read it with my husband.
Oh for god's sake. YET ANOTHER funny and fantastic and understated and overstated book from Mo Willems. I am beginning to think that if he did an illustrated retelling of, I don't know, The Giving Tree or Twilight or 50 Shades of Gray I would like even THAT.
With this book, he had me even before the story began, at endpapers decorated with a hundred scratched-out titles: Goldilocks and the Three Dentists; Goldilocks and the Three Goats.
Yup. When you find yourself laughing out loud at the endpapers, you know you're in trouble.

Mo Willems strikes again! I love his books because while they entertain kids of all ages, it really takes a more "mature" reader to really appreciate the jokes!! That's what makes this book great for the whole family, everyone will appreciate it in their own way! All kids will like the introduction of the dinosaurs to this classic tale, but it's the introduction of the "Norwegian" dinosaur that tickled my funny bone! Or how about Goldilocks eating all of the pudding, regardless of the temperature, because hey, it's pudding! I loved the twist on this ol' standby story and I'm sure others will as well!
True Mo Willems fans will quickly spot the appearance of another famous "Mo" character in the pages of this book!

Funny, satirical fractured retelling of the Goldilocks story. There are moments, this is Mo Willems after all, where the barrier seems to be broken and it feels like you're being talked to with sarcastic asides. Enjoyable story to read.
We bought this book for our nephew for Christmas, and it was really hard to give it away. This is a hilarious book that kept me laughing all the way through. Love it!!
Full of tongue-in-cheek humor, this retelling of Goldilocks will keep readers engaged. The illustrations are well-done and add to the humor of the book.
FUNNY! Clever! A great "fractured" fairy tale. Lots of sarcasm and joking. Ella (6 yrs old) didn't get some of it until I explained it to her, but she understood more and more after that and enjoyed the story immensely. So did I.
Oh Mo Willems, you never fail to crack me up! I love a good subtle and sarcastic picture book, and this is one of the best. The three dinosaurs lay a sneaky trap for Golidlocks, hoping to capture her after she eats three bowls of chocolate pudding. Will she realize the error of her ways in time? Recommended for grade 2 and up, in order to fully appreciate the humor.
