From the publisher

With Goldilocks leading the way, Lucy Cousins retells three favorite fairy tales in all their original power, with a spare text and bold art exuding her cheerful wit. “Someone’s been eating my porridge,” said Papa Bear. An opportunistic little visitor. A billy goat who takes no prisoners. An industrious (and self-preserving) red hen. From best-selling, award-winning author-illustrator Lucy Cousins, here are three classic children’s tales–Goldilocks and the Three Bears, The Three Billy Goats Gruff, and The Little Red Hen–showcased together in one rousing volume. These well-loved stories take on new energy as Lucy Cousins brings them to vivid life in a not-to-be-missed collection.
