Goldilocks and the Three Knocks by Gregory Barrington

You've got to be careful with bears. Goldilocks learned this the hard way. The bears were just being good neighbors...until they weren't. 

Thoughts: This might be my new favorite version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. I love that we get a look at Goldilocks's side of the story, but I won't spoil it here. I love the illustrations. The details and panels paired with the mixture of fonts gives the book a comic book style feel. Pair with Goldibooks and the Wee Bear by Troy Wilson, Redlocks and the Three Bears by Claudia Rueda, Goldilocks and Just One Bear by Leigh Hodgkinson, and Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs by Mo Willems. 

Themes: Fractured Fairy Tales, Fairy Tales, The Three Bears
