Goldenlocks and the Three Pirates

By April Jones Prince & Steven Salerno
Goldenlocks and the Three Pirates by April Jones Prince & Steven Salerno digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A fun and clever picture book retelling of Goldilocks—with pirates!

Once upon a seaworthy sloop lived three pirates: the big, pilfering Papa, the medium-sized, menacing Mama, and the small, bonny Baby, a pirate-in-training. They were excellent pirates, but not very good housekeepers, so their gruel wasn't tasty, their stools weren't sturdy, and their hammocks weren't hung properly. Luckily for them, Goldenlocks happened along when they were out for a row in the harbor. April Jones Prince's rollicking text and Steven Salerno's swashbuckling paintings make Goldenlocks and the Three Pirates a first-rate adventure and a spirited take on Goldilocks.

“A loves this one from her book club. It's not my favorite, but not my least favorite of the current repeat reading list. ;) I am trying to have more fun with the words and I appreciate the ending message!”
