Mama Bear fixes porridge for Papa Bear and Baby Bear. The three decide to go on a walk in the forest. After they leave, a little girl named Goldilocks crosses upon their house. After knocking with no answer, she walks into the bear's house. After testing all of the porridges for the right temperature, Goldilocks gobbles up Baby Bears porridge. When testing the chairs, she chooses Baby Bear's chairs and actually breaks it. Lastly, Goldilocks tests the beds, and falls asleep in Baby Bear's bed. When the Bear family arrives home, they discover the intruder's mess. When they discover Goldilocks sleeping, they wake her up and she runs away.

Reading this as an adult, I realize how inconsiderate Goldilocks is. It makes me wonder where her parents were when she was doing this. ALthough I never intruded on someone's house, Goldilocks taught me that if it is not yours, don't take it.

When reading this book, it should be reinforced that the things Goldilocks was doing was not nice, and it made the Bears upset. If Goldilocks would have asked to share some of the things with the Bears, her ending could have turned out differently.
