Author: Melodye Benson Rosales
Publisher: Scholastic, 1999

In this African American version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, the main character, Leola, has a mind of her own. Even though her grandmother asks her not to stray from home, she decides, “I’m going to do what I want to.” So Leola wanders off to encounter a frightening Mr. Weasel and the gentle Honeybear family. Rosales’s vivid oil paintings make this oversized picture book a perfect read-aloud.
