While there are many versions of this story out there, here's one worth adding to collections.'<br />- Booklist Online</p> <p>'Muller's version of the three bears adds a delightful mix of tradition and the modern day... Muller's illustrations are done in an understated color palette with dashes of vivacious reds. The bears' home is wonderfully traditional with a Dutch door, carved wooden chairs, and matching comforters on the beds in different colors but all with a bee motif. No one will wonder why Goldilocks enters and stays. It is all so very inviting and cozy... This is a cheery and slightly modernized version of the traditional story that will be welcome in library collections or as a great bedtime pick.'<br />- Wakingbraincells blog</p> <p>'A wonderful interpretation of this classic story with timeless, intricate illustrations offering wonderful extra detail for parents and children to spot together.'<br />- Tammy Dolling</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Gerda Muller is an acclaimed Dutch children�s author and illustrator.
