Product Information

Once upon a time, on the edge of a big dark forest,there lived a little girl called Goldilocks.You have probably heard of her? If so, you will know three things. She was small. Shehad lots of golden curls and she had far too much curiosity for her good. Once upon a time, on the edge of a big dark forest there lived a little girl called Goldilocks. You have probably heard of her? If so, you will know three things- she was small, she had lots of golden curls and she had far too much curiosity for her own good. So when Goldilocks discovers an intriguing wooden cottage deep in the forest, she just can't resist peeking inside. Now why would there be one, two, three of everything . . .? Lauren Child brings her trademark innovative approach to this wonderfully warm and witty retelling of the classic cautionary tale, and adds her own clever twist. Following the success of The Princess and the Pea, she once again joins forces with award-winning portrait photographer Polly Borland, whose stunning photography brings this truly original picture book startlingly to life. They are joined by a talented theatre designer, Emily Jenkins, who has designed and created an enchanting hand-crafted miniature world. The sets for the book took over a year to make. The doll-sized cottage, complete with winding staircase, stands about a metre tall. Real turf was grown for the roof. Special wallpaper and fabrics were designed and printed, featuring woodland motifs. Exquisite miniature furniture, including the three bears' beds, chairs and porridge bowls, were carved, crafted and painted by Emily and her team of designers. Tiny slippers were sewn, cushions stuffed and bed linen edged and folded. The tiny spoons were carved specially - even the porridge is real!The cast of characters were made by world-famous doll maker, R. John Wright, whose dolls and bears sell to collectors all over the world. Goldilocks is 30 centimetres tall and made of soft felt with hand-painted features; her golden locks are made of the softest mohair. She arrived from America complete with a tiny hand-woven basket of felt daisies, which you can see her carrying in the book. Mother, Father and Baby Bear are all made from the softest fur and have tiny resin claws. Father Bear arrived with a hand-carved wooden pipe, which, if you look very closely, you can spot in the pictures, warming by the fire.%%%When Goldilocks discovers an intriguing wooden cottage deep in the forest she just can't resist peeping inside. Now why would there be one, two, three of everything . . . Lauren Child brings her trademark innovative approach to this wonderfully warm and witty retelling of the classic cautionary tale in a second collaboration with award-winning photographer Polly Borland. The cast of characters are played by toys specially created for the book by a world-famous dollmaker. They inhabit an enchanting miniature world created by theatre designer Emily Jenkins. The cottage is doll-sized with real turf grown for the roof. The exquisite furniture including the bear's beds, chairs, porridge bowls and tiny spoons are all carved and painted by hand. Polly's original photography brings this extraordinary picture book startlingly to life. Now in paperback.

An enchanting beautifully illustrated edition of the Goldilocks fairy story
This is an enchanting edition of the traditional Goldilocks story. If you've ever wanted to know more about Goldilocks or the three bears then this is the story to read! Lauren Child (best known for Charlie & Lola or Clarice Bean) brings the story to life with exquistite text and lovely little details (like Goldilocks' excuse for entering the bears cottage is needing to clean her muddy little red shoes that her mother had told her to look after). I never tire of reading this at bedtime to my 4 year old (be warned, it's a 20 min read at least!). He borrowed this again and again from the library for over half a year so we decided to buy him his own copy. Alongside the wonderful text is the beautiful photography of real life dolls and hand made cottages to illustrate the story. It really is enchanting and a delight to look at as well as read. Both boys and girls will enjoy this book for many years.Read full review
