If you like bears, you might want to read this book. This book is about three bears who make porridge, and a girl named Goldilocks who goes into their house, eats their food, and makes a mess. It was funny when Goldilocks broke Baby Bear's chair and slept in his bed. A lesson that you can learn from reading this book is that you should not go into other people's houses without knocking. Read this book to find out what happened when the three bears got back home.
I like this book because Goldilocks broke things and made a mess and it was funny. My favorite part was when they found Goldilocks in Baby Bear's bed, because Goldilocks was frightened like a rabbit. I liked the pictures because they made me think about what was happening, and on each picture there were colors and details.
People who like bears would like to read this story because it it's all about bears who have a messy house. This book was easy for me to read because the words were not too hard. I think that adults and children will like this book because it is interesting, and it teaches a good lesson.
An old favorite for many people, this book truly encompasses the lifelong love people have for fairytales and folklore. There is just something uniquely special about the way the author tells this story to take hold of the reader’s attention and keep them interested to find out what happens at the very end!
Even for experienced readers that may be familiar with this tale, this plot never grows old for someone that loves a comforting story to return to again and again.

This timeless story received countless positive reviews back in its day, and continues to be a favorite for many teachers and parents today! The gorgeous illustrations do play a contibuting factor in this book’s popularity, so here are a few examples of what those images look like.
“One of them was a little, small, wee bear, and one was a middle-sized bear, and the other was a great, huge bear.”“First she lay down upon the bed of the great, huge bear, but that was too high at the head for her. Next she lay down upon the bed of the middle-sized bear, but that was too high at the foot for her. Then she lay down upon the bed of the little, small, wee bear, and that was neither too high at the head nor food, but just right. So she covered herself up comfortably and fell fast asleep.”“Up she started; and when she saw the three bears on one side of the bed, she tumbled herself off the other, and ran to the window.”
According to arbookfind.com this story has received a 3.5 star rating. After reading this book several times over the last few days and cherishing each illustration and detail in the text, I would like to present it with a 4.5 star rating. I believe the language in this book is somewhat poetic and sets a great example for children’s literature to use language that is descriptive and fully explains the storyline. I would feel very comfortable using this book in my future classroom to give students an example of effective writing.
The major themes and take-aways I have from reading this story is that curiosity can get you into trouble at times. I believe this book was just encompassing a popular nursery rhyme often used to help remind children of behaviors that are looked down upon and not deemed acceptable in our culture. I wouldn’t go as far to say that breaking and entering was the main concept the author was wanting her readers to learn, but there are ideas that might point a reader to believe this.
This book is for sure a favorite of mine, so I do plan to keep it nearby for my future students and children to explore and read through. This is an oldie and for sure a goodie!
This is an irresistible version of a nursery favourite. When a young girl walking in the woods discovers an empty house that belongs to a family of bears, she sets about making herself comfortable by eating their food and using their belongings.
Valeri Gorbachev's humorous illustrations present a delightful family of bears and are filled with homely detail. Children will be entertained by the bemused reaction of the bears to their intruder. A great book for reading aloud.
