유명한 전래 동화인 "Goldilocks and the Three Bears"의 이야기를 골디락스 대신에 이웃에 사는 염소인 고티락스(Goatilocks)로 바꿔서 유머러스하게 재구성한 책입니다.

아빠곰, 엄마곰, 아기곰, 세명의 곰돌이 가족이 산책을 나갔을 때, 이웃에 사는 코티락스가 몰래 곰돌이네 집으로 들어갔습니다. 그리고는 맛있는 죽을 발견하고는 그 중에서 온도가 제일 적당한 아기곰의 죽을 먹어 치웁니다. 그런데 죽만 먹어 치운 걸까요?

거실에서는 3개의 의자를 발견하는데, 그 중에서 제일 편안하게 앉을 수 있는 아기곰의 의자를.... 또 먹어치우네요.

침실에서는 3개의 침대 중에서 역시 자신에게 제일 적당한 아기곰의 침대도 몽땅 먹어치웁니다.

산책에서 돌아온 곰돌이 가족은 누군가 침입해서 아기곰의 죽과 그릇, 아기곰의 의자, 아기곰의 침대를 먹어치운 것을 발견합니다. 그리고 배부르게 먹고 잠자고 있는 고티락스를 발견하지요. 집으로 도망간 고티락스가 자신의 잘못을 뉘우치고 곰가족에게 보내준 것은...? 그리고 곰가족이 이것을 받고 보인 반응은...? 마지막까지 예상을 뒤집는 재미있는 결말입니다. 킥킥킥 웃으면서 즐길 수 있는 유머러스한 책입니다.

Book Description
Goatilocks gobbles more than porridge in this fractured fairy tale that puts a hilarious twist on a favorite story.
Once upon a time, there was a kid named Goatilocks.
She lived down the road from a family of bears...
Goatilocks can’t resist sampling first Papa Bear’s porridge, then Mama Bear’s porridge, then Baby Bear’s porridge—and his bowl and spoon, too. And it turns out Goatilocks has a taste for chairs and beds as well. Has Goatilocks devoured her way to disaster? What will happen when the Bear family returns home from their walk?
This playful adaptation of a favorite fairy tale is full of tummy-rumbling fun.


School Library Journal
While the bear family is out for a walk, a young goat sneaks into their home. Goatilocks tries the typical three bowls of porridge, three chairs, and three beds, but with typical goatlike behavior, she also eats Baby Bear's spoon, chair, and bed. When she is discovered by the three bears, she hoofs it home. Returning the following day and feeling sheepish, Goatilocks offers flowers to the bears, which they all eat. Events in Perl's humorous and fresh retelling of the traditional tale unfold at a quick pace. Howard's cheery and detailed watercolors infuse extra doses of charm into the story, such as bear faces printed on wallpaper and a pair of salt and pepper shakers resting on the bears' picnic blanket. The number three is reinforced repeatedly in the artwork beginning with Howard's inclusion of three ladybugs crawling along a flower stem on the title page. In later illustrations, observant children discover three goldfish, three birds, three squirrels, and three bunnies. Howard adds humorous tidbits that will even evoke chuckles from adults, such as the name "Kodiak" inscribed on Papa Bear's camera. Perl and Howard's work provides an entertaining alternative to more traditional versions of the story. Teachers can successfully use it in compare-and-contrast lessons with other versions of the tale. Families, too, should find this picture book to be a bedtime read-aloud treat.


Booklist
Starring “a kid named Goatilocks” (kid as in “young goat”), this fractured nursery tale begins when Goatilocks spies the bear family setting out for a walk and ventures into their house to try their bowls of porridge, their chairs, and their beds. She eats Baby Bear’s porridge (bowl, spoon, and all); his chair; and his bed before falling into a contented slumber. Upon awakening, Goatilocks finds the stupefied bears looming over her and makes a fast getaway, but she returns the next morning to make amends. This picture book makes good use of page turns for dramatic and comic effect. Brightened with watercolor washes, Howard’s cartoonlike line drawings add expressive characterizations and witty visual touches. The precisely worded text retains the satisfying structure of the original tale while adding some amusing twists and a couple of enjoyable puns. Fun for reading aloud to groups of children, this Goldilocks spoof offers a good narrative, plenty of laughs, and a happy ending.
