one by wonderful american librarian on Librarians Quest blog

aw, such nice comments make me smile in my tummy and go whoop whoop in my brain, i do believe that this has made my year so far!
how very nice!
Leigh Hodgkinson’s Goldilocks and Just the One Bear (Nosy Crow, £10.99) is a satirical re-writing of a favourite story. This time it is the bear who invades the home: a posh apartment owned by Goldilocks, now a fashionable wife and mum. Leigh Hodgkinson’s bright and stylish illustrations go happily over the top.
“happily over the top,” is that a good thing.. gulpo
if you don’ believe me (shame on you!) have a looky here
thanks to the lovely sniffing pug for including my “goldilocks and just the one bear” in your sooperdooper list of fab childrens books of 2012.
this news has made me oh so pleased that i might just reward myself with a biscuit (not a doggy one mind).
see the whole list here.
i am pleased to say i own about 90% of them (and the rest are on my christmas list!)
Have a look at BookARoos (aka superstar author caryl harts) cheek reddeningly nice review about “Goldilocks and just the one bear” here.
i love the fact that she said it was snort-out-load-able. snorting is always a good reaction in my book (2the book of snorts”….it hasn’t been published yet)
goldilocks and just the one bear get a little mention in the telegraphs children’s books for the summer
which is meltingly lovely.
thanks nosy crow for bringing it to my blurry sleep deprived attention!
so glad that this book is being well received… i think i shall have a little ice lolly to celebrate.

i never really realised that my colour palette was retro… but i guess it is. i do like a bit of green orange and pink it is so true.
