Goldie Locks Has Chicken Pox by Erin Dealey
5.0
I just read this book to my son and I think I enjoyed it more than he did.
The story in cute, told in an easy rhyme with many references to other fairy-tale/Mother Goose-ish characters. However what did it for me are the illustrations.
The look and feel are very retro fifties with a dash of wit. While Little Red (just Little Red, no Riding hood, thank you very much) comes skipping by to ask "Can Goldie come to Gran's with me?/I sure would like the company." We see the Bid Bad peeking cheekily through the window.
There are many other clever little visual cues. My husband even remarked on the great art.
