-Summary: This book is the story about Goldielocks getting the chicken pox and what she has to go through. It ends with a turn of events on her brother.
-Personal Reaction: Its a good book for young students because they can relate to it. Its also a cute and funny story.
-Classroom Extension: After we read the book we can talk about who has had the chicken pox and give tips to others who haven't had them yet. Also you could teach about consequences because the brother made fun of Goldie Locks and ended up with them himself.

This is a great book to read to a child who is sick or who has the chicken pox. It brings in different characters from all different nursery rhyme books. I like that in the book Goldie Locks gives the chicken pox to her brother… isn’t that what usually happens? ( )

Poor Goldie Locks. She has chicken pox.

We rhyme our way through the large cast of Mother Goose figures and one annoying baby brother (who, after being so annoying to his sister, including playing connect-the-dots on her face, eventually gets sick himself, a just desert if I ever saw one!)

Cute, retro illustrations and nice rhymes. I'm not as thrilled with the book as my nieces are, but they like it enough to justify giving it the fourth star. ( )

The Story is about a young girl, Goldy Locks, who gets chicken pocks. She real madly wants to play but, she needs rest and to stay inside the house. Her brother makes fun of her the whole time she is sick. However, after her brother made fun and mocked Goldy Locks he got chicken pocks.
The story reminded me of my childhood. I once had chicken pock. My brother and I played the whole time I was sick. Well, he never got chicken pocks, till this day. The story also was interesting because i normally read Goldy Locks and the Three Bears.
I would you the story as a sick unit. I the flu is going around and children are learning to wash hands the story explains why children have to stay away from other and why washing hands are good. I also would include a lesson about making fun of others and why not to make fun of one another.

This book is good for those children who are experiencing the chicken pox for the time.

Book description
Haiku summary

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0689876106, Paperback)

As if the itching and fever of chicken pox isn't bad enough, poor little Goldie Locks can't visit with her friends Red Riding Hood and Bo Peep, and her younger brother is positively ruthless in his teasing. What's a fairy tale gal to do? Wait for Bro's karmic comeuppance, that's what. And if the law of traveling germs holds true, the uppance will come quickly.

Erin Dealey's rhyming lark plays havoc with favorite storybook characters, from Henny Penny to Jack (Goldie's brother calls out the window: "Jack, be nimble! Jack, be quick! / Come and see! My sister's sick!"). Illustrator Hanako Wakiyama's Goldie Locks, with her big, spotted face and tiny blonde braids, is the picture of wretchedness, while her naughty tow-headed sibling is fiendish in his bursting good health (for now, anyway). The distinctive artwork in retro reds and oranges is chock-full of witty details and child-friendly perspectives. Young readers who have suffered at the hands of bratty brothers and sisters will identify immediately with Goldie's frustration and cheer when Little Brother finally gets his just and speckled deserts. (Ages 4 to 7) --Emilie Coulter
