A delightful and funny retelling of one of the most famous tales of all time. Follow the antics of these little pigs as they (well some of them) make foolish decisions and flirt with the hungry wolf.

There were once three bears living together in a little house in the woods. Each had their own bowl of porridge, their own bed, and their own chair. But one day, they went out for a walk, and a little girl named Goldenlocks stepped into their house! Then this unwelcome guest begins to eat the bears' porridge and makes herself at home. What happens when the bears come back? 

Simpleton, the youngest of three brothers, may not be the smartest, but he has the biggest heart. His kindness is rewarded with a golden goose with feathers of fine gold. His new feathered friend has the attention of everyone in the village, and when they try to snatch a feather, they get stuck! Now Simpleton has a crowd following him everywhere he and the goose go! 

This is the original story about a poor family that wished so earnestly for a child that the fairies heard them and answered with a tiny boy that could bathe in a teacup. Many adventures and scrapes indeed follow this tiny boy but in the end he finds the love of a beautiful tiny fairy.

This retelling of the old tale about the three bears who left their porridge to cool has some amusing twists and turns.

The tale of the wonderful, magic goose that laid golden eggs and what the people around her did. A cautionary tale indeed!
