Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs As Retold by Mo Willems Mo Willems 9780062104182 Books

We have read this book many, many times at our house. We just read it again so I decided I should write a review. Mo Willems is just a comedy genius really. His books are so much fun to read. I think I enjoy them as much as my daughters. This book gives you so much to explore besides just the main story. For example, one time we looked up Norway on the map and figured out which ocean is between us and Norway. Once we listened to the Norwegian pronounceation of "horjfsk" and looked up other words in Norwegian. We have studied the pictures in great depth and my daughter was happy to discover Pigeon's face in the cookie jar. I could go on and on. Each time we read it we discover something else fun, that is the mark of a great book. Also, at our house many times after the girls have eaten one of our favorite foods, my husband or I have chased them around pretending to try to eat a succulent, delicious, fill-in-the-blank-filled-little-girl! Thanks for the fun Mo Willems!

Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs As Retold by Mo Willems Mo Willems 9780062104182 Books Reviews

Another great one from Mo Willems! It's hilarious, but I question if young children can appreciate its humor. It would be perfect to use with older children to compare and contrast the original version with this one. Highly recommend!
Our 25-month-old son has loved this book since he was 18 months old. MUCH more fun than the Three Bears. Now he knows he would love to eat chocolate pudding--even though he's never had it. This is one of his favorite books. Thankfully, it's much more fun for parents to read than his other favorite books, most of which involve endless typologies of cars, trains and construction equipment!

I would especially recommend this book for little girls (even though our boys' boy loves it). No princesses here! This Goldilocks "never listened to anyone or anything. In particular, she never listened to warnings about the dangers of barging into strange, enormous houses. So as soon as she came across a strange, enormous house--" "She barged right in!" shouts our son.
I noticed that there are quite a few people who thought this one was over their kids' heads. Perhaps some of the allusions are. But my six-year-old twins and my four-year-old daughter have read this over and over and over and over... so they must get something!

The key I think, is for the reader (listener) to be thoroughly familiar with multiple tellings of the Goldilocks story. My kids love one by Richard Scarry, a classic, but they also have read other versions with me. So when Goldilocks, in this story, one by one finds all of the chairs TOO TALL, my kids throw back their heads and roar. And they are right! Willems has messed with the rhythm of the classic, and it is hysterical.

This is a book that can be read ad nauseum by both children and adults. And that sort of book is worth keeping on your bookshelf.
I adore this book. If I didn't buy it for my kids, I'd probably have purchased it for myself. What I love about this book most is that Mo Willems wrote it. Seriously. He just doesn't disappoint and he's such a fantastic storyteller and artist. As an adult with a strong affection for good childrens' stories, I can't express enough how important it is to me that books encourage children to fill in the blanks with their imaginations. I have to be careful saying that, because I don't want to indicate that there is anything missing. Rather, I think a really good book will ignite the momentum for their imaginations to keep rolling, while the story is going, but also long after it is over!

What I like most about this book is the snark. Simply put, it's just really funny. Even if you've come to love Mo Willems' writing like I have, you still won't be able to predict what happens next because the story has a life of its own. The three dinosaurs (LOVE the +1 special guest dino...hahaha) are devious and little Goldilocks is so naughty and careless. It seems like our kids really are censored, especially when you compare the stories they read now, to stories that were told LONG ago that were often created to teach kids lessons about the dangerous world they lived in. This book follows suit and has its own morals to teach, but does so in such a hilarious manner.

I'm trying to write an essay and I'm really not sure why. I think that I should never review Willem's books here because most of the time my answer is just "I just love it. I love everything about it." My kids are 3 and 6, and my 3rd "child" is 31. We all love this story!! SO glad we ventured out our very happy home in the world of Knuffle Bunny, Pigeon, Elephant, and Piggie. We still love them- they're our favorites, but we have room in our bookshelf for many more favorites if they're anything like this!!
Couldn't give this book more praise! This book is HILARIOUS, not only for kids but for the reader as well (and as a kindergarten teacher, I know its hard to find those books that you can enjoy as much as the kids - especially since you'll be reading it a hundred times). I love how it takes a regular story and gives it some new twists and turns, which was fun because I read this to a 1st grade class and after we had a fun conversation on the differences between this version of the story and the one they have heard before.

For the adults, Mo Willems has such a great sense of humor- each page is littered with little jokes that go over some of the kids heads but are great for parents/teachers who are reading this book. A little sassy and sarcastic, but in a wonderful way. I love one how it's "Papa dinosaur, Mama dinosaur and another dinosaur who happens to be visiting from Norway" or how he describes Goldilocks as a "poorly supervised little girl"

Basically everyone should have a copy of this book!
