APPEALS TO: MANY

The Goldilocks family of three is on a camping trip.  After they cook their s'mores they decide to let them cool and go on a hike.  While they are gone, a little bear comes through and basically wrecks everything.

Hilarious! I love this book so much! And you will too. I especially love how the bear family wants to make amends, but the Goldilocks are only scared, because they don’t speak bear.  I think your listeners will also be aghast that the family would leave their s'mores behind. Who eats cold s'mores?  As the author tells us - that’s how bears roll.
