From the publisher

Every child–and parent–knows the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We know how Golidlocks ate all of Baby Bearï¿1/2s porridge, then sat on Baby Bearï¿1/2s chair and broke it. But what happened after Goldilocks left? Kids will delight in this brand new story of how Mother Bear, Father Bear, and Baby Bear go shopping for a brand new chair. They find all kinds of chairs. In fact, the choices are so great that they overwhelm poor Baby Bear. He doesnï¿1/2t know what to do. Then, an old friend appears in this new story with a solution to Baby Bearï¿1/2s puzzle. Kids will love author Kaye Umanskyï¿1/2s surprise ending. Theyï¿1/2ll also love the beautiful color illustrations on every page, rendered by illustrator Chris Fisher in a charming, old-fashioned style that recalls storybooks of an earlier time.
