Could the perfect lead singer be the mysterious girl sleeping on Baby Bear’s keyboard?
This mash up of Goldilocks and the Three Bears and American Idol is a surefire storytime hit.

•Like a good song, this story has a sustained riff and solid rhymes with reliable beats. Illustrator Wragg serves up cheeky cameos by the greats — of the fairy-tale circuit, that is. —The Horn Book
•While there are numerous versions of this tale, this one offers a fresh take that will make it a favorite for readers. The colorful illustrations capture the action and add to readers’ enjoyment. Recommended.
—Library Media Connection
•The meter and rhyme scheme have the feel of a limerick, giving the story a buoyant singsong quality. Wragg’s mixed-media cartoons evoke vintage Golden Books, and... his humorous flourishes match the mood of the storytelling. —Publishers Weekly
