汪培珽私房書單里極力推薦的作家Jan Brett的作品。 經典格林童話——Goldilocks跟三只熊的故事。Jan Brett再重述并加上其生動的插圖，每頁都有藏著驚喜，可別忽略了每一頁的細節哦！細細品讀Jan Brett畫家特有的細膩、情感豐富的天性。對細微處的要求、用色鮮艷華麗，皆可從Jan Brett這位國際知名繪作家的作品中感受到。

Children find the story of Goldilocks delightful for so many reasons. There's a trespassing little girl, for starters, who barges into the bears' house uninvited and not only snoops around, but eats the bears' food! The suspense of wondering whether she'll get caught only adds to the thrill of the trespassing itself, and the repeated lines about the three bears with their three distinct voices, bowls, chairs, and beds further endear this tale to the preschool set. In Jan Brett's Goldilocks, the bears and the slightly audacious flaxen-haired heroine all sport traditional (Black Forest?) costumes with detailed embroidery, and the wooden furniture is carved with bears, birds, and flowers. (Intricate borders--carved wooden panels in this book--are Jan Brett's special signature.) Brett is the illustrator of many well-known folk tales, fairy tales, and poems, such as The Mitten and Edward Lear's The Owl and the Pussycat. Of her exquisite interpretation of this beloved story, Booklist writes, "This is perfection." (Ages 3 to 6)
