Goldilocks and the Three Bears

 

 

 

 

 

 

*

Once upon a time, in a little house on the edge of the woods, a girl called Goldilocks lived with her parents. One morning, she woke up as the sun was streaming through her window; thinking it was time for school, she leapt out of bed.

Downstairs her mother was busy.

“It’s far too early for school. Don’t get under my feet. Why don’t you go out for a walk? You can pick me some blackberries to make a pie for dinner tonight,” she grumbled.

Goldilocks went skipping into the woods swinging a basket for the blackberries. Singing to herself, she went further and further into the woods.

*

After a while, she began to feel hungry and a little tired. Across a clearing in the woods she suddenly saw a cottage.

“Perhaps I could get something to eat there and have a rest,” she thought.

She knocked on the door but there was no reply. Gently, she pushed the door and, to her surprise, it opened. Cautiously, she went in.

“Hello?” she called, but no one answered.

The door had opened into a kitchen. On the table she could see three bowls of porridge which smelled so delicious that it made her tummy rumble. The bowls were three different sizes: big, middle-sized and tiny. And by each bowl was a chair also big, middle-sized and tiny.

Goldilocks scrambled onto the biggest chair because it had the biggest bowl of porridge by it. She picked up a big spoon and tried the porridge.

“Ouch!” she cried.“This porridge is too hot!”

She moved onto the next chair and the next bowl. Picking up a middle-sized spoon she tried the porridge.

“Yuck!” she said, for it was very very cold.

Goldilocks moved onto the next chair and the smallest bowl. Picking up the smallest spoon, she tried the porridge. It was just right. So, very quickly, she ate it all up.

As she was finishing it, she began to hear a strange creaking sound and, just as she ate the last spoonful, the legs of the chair she was sitting on broke and she landed with a bump on the floor.

*

After all the porridge and the bump, she suddenly felt very sleepy. So she went up the twisty stairs to see if she could find somewhere to lie down.

First of all, she found a great big bed. She climbed up onto it but, oh, it was too hard.

Then she found a middle-sized bed. She climbed into it but it was too soft, she felt as though she would disappear in it.

Then she found a teeny tiny bed. This felt just right so she climbed into it, pulled the covers over herself and was soon fast asleep.

*

While she was sleeping, the owners of the cottage came back. They were three bears: Daddy Bear, Mummy Bear and Baby Bear. They’d been for a walk in the woods before breakfast and now they were hungry.

“Hello, what’s this?” growled Daddy Bear, in his great big voice. “It looks as though someone’s been messing with my porridge and whoever it is has left muddy footprints on my chair.”

 

Mummy Bear came to look.

“You’re right, my dear,” she said in her soft, growly, middle-sized voice. “Someone’s been eating my porridge too and I’m sure the cushion on my chair has been sat on.”

Then Baby Bear began to cry.

“Someone’s been eating my porridge and they’ve eaten it all up and they’ve broken my chair as well!” he sobbed in his little, squeaky, teeny, middle-sized growl.

“Who could have done this? And where were they now?” they wondered.

They looked around the house and went upstairs.

“Well,” growled Daddy Bear, “someone’s been lying in my bed but they’re not there now.”

“Someone’s been in my bed too,” said Mummy Bear, “but I can’t see them.”

Then they heard a squeak from Baby Bear.

“Daddy! Mummy! Come quickly, there’s someone fast asleep in my bed!”

Daddy and Mummy Bear raced into his room and stood around the bed looking down at Goldilocks. She woke with a start and was frightened to see three bears all looking at her. 

Before they could say anything, she jumped out of bed, out of the window and ran away through the woods back to her home because she didn’t know that they were really gentle, friendly bears.

“Well I never,” growled Daddy Bear, scratching his head. “My grandfather told me people were strange. Fancy, eating all that porridge and then running away.”

Puzzled, the three bears went back to the kitchen where Daddy Bear mended Baby Bear's chair, while Mummy Bear made more porridge. And from that day to this, bears all over the world have always known that people are strange creatures who are not to be trusted with porridge.

Goldilocks & the Three Bears

There was once a family of bears who lived in a cosy cottage in the woods. There was a great big Papa Bear, a medium-size Momma Bear, and a little tiny baby bear.

One morning Mama Bear cooked them some porridge for breakfast. As the porridge was too hot to eat, the three bears decided to take a walk in the woods while it cooled.

They had not been gone long when a little girl named Goldilocks came along. She had been picking flowers and had wandered into the woods. When she saw the three bears cottage, she smiled and clapped her hands. “How pretty!” she cried. “I wonder who lives there?” She stood on her toes and peaked in the window. There didn’t seem to be anyone home, so Goldilocks opened the door and went right inside!

The first thing she saw was the table set with three bowls of porridge; a great big bowl for Papa Bear, a medium-size bowl for Momma Bear, and a tiny little bowl for baby bear. “Oh, that porridge smells good!” Goldilocks said. Then, as she was feeling a little hungry, she picked up a spoon and tasted the porridge in the Great Big Bowl.

“OUCH!” she cried, dropping the spoon. “That porridge is MUCH too hot!”

She tasted the porridge in the medium-size bowl. But that porridge was MUCH too cold.

Then she tasted the porridge in the tiny little bowl. “Mmmmmm,” she said. “This porridge is JUST right!” so she ate it all up!

Then Goldilocks saw the three chairs set before the fire; a great big chair for Papa Bear, a medium-size chair for Mamma Bear, and a tiny little chair for Baby Bear. “Oh, it would be nice to sit down for a while!” Goldilocks thought.

So she climbed into the great big chair that belonged to Papa Bear. “Oh, no!” she said. “That chair is MUCH too hard.”

Then she sat in Mamma Bears medium size Chair “Oh, no,” she said. “That chair is MUCH too soft!”

Next, she sat in Baby Bears tiny little chair. “Ahhhh,” she said with a smile. “This chair is JUST right!”

Just then there was a loud CRAAACK! and the little chair broke right through!

Goldilocks stood up and dusted herself off. Then she climbed upstairs to the bedroom. There she saw three beds all in a row. “Oh,” she said, yawning, “I am feeling sleepy.”

So she pulled down the covers and climbed into Papa Bears great big bed. But she quickly jumped down. “That bed is MUCH too hard!” she said.

Then she tried Mamma Bears medium size bed. But it was too soft.

So she climbed into Baby Bears tiny little bed. It was JUST right. Soon Goldilocks was fast asleep!

A little while later the Three Bears returned from their walk. They were feeling very hungry and were looking forward to eating the nice bowls of tasty porridge.

Suddenly Papa cried out in his great big voice, “Someone has been eating my porridge!”

Then Mamma cried out in her medium size voice, “Someone has been eating MY porridge!”

And Baby Bear cried out in his tiny little voice, “Some has been eating my porridge. And they’ve eaten it ALL UP!”

Then the Three Bears saw their chairs near the fireplace.

“Someone has been sitting in my chair!” Papa Bear said in his great big voice.

“Someone has been sitting in MY chair!” Mamma Bear said in her medium size voice.

“Someone has been sitting in MY chair,” Baby Bear cried in his tiny little voice. “And now it’s BROKEN!”

Then the Three Bears went upstairs to the bedroom.

“Someone has been sleeping in my bed!” Papa Bear shouted in his great big voice.

“And someone has been sleeping in MY bed!” Mamma Bear exclaimed in her medium size voice.

“Someone has been sleeping in MY bed,” Baby Bear squeaked in his tiny little voice. “AND HERE SHE IS!”

Just then Goldilocks woke up! When she saw the three bears standing around her, she leaped off the bed and ran down the stairs and out the door.

She didn’t stop until she was all the way back home.

And the Three Bears never saw Goldilocks again!

Goldilocks (and the three bears) is an English fairy tale. It was first published in 1837 by British author and poet Robert Southey. The story was before that time already part of English folklore. The story is about three bears and an intrusive old woman. The moral of the story is about egoism, respecting others’ property and the abuse of someone’s hospitality.

Goldilocks was originally an old woman. In a publication from 1849 she was replaced by a young girl. In the course of the twentieth century, she was named Goldilocks. Also, the three bachelor bears by Southey evolved in a family of three bears. What was originally a terrifying story, gradually changing into a charming tale for the whole family.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

English fairy tale

Three bears lived in a beautiful stone house in the forest: Papa Bear - a big big one, Mama Bear - a little smaller, and a little bear cub, Mishutka. Each of them had their own bowl for stew: a small one for Mishutka, a medium one for Bear, and a large one for Papa Bear. At dinner, everyone sat in their own chair: Mishutka - on the smallest one, Mama Bear - on the middle one, and Papa Bear - on the largest one. Everyone had their own bed: Mishutka slept on the smallest one, Mama Bear on the middle one, and Papa Bear on the largest one.

One day Mama Bear cooked delicious stew for lunch and poured it into bowls. But the stew was very hot, you had to wait until it cools down. Therefore, the bears took a basket each and went for a walk in the forest, and at the same time to pick berries.

While the bears were walking, a little girl came out along the forest path to their house. Her name was Goldilocks because she had beautiful golden hair. First she looked through the window, then looked through the keyhole, and finally called:

– Hey, is anyone home?

But, of course, no one answered her. Then she just lifted the latch and pushed the door.

The door was not locked, the bears lived peacefully, did no harm to anyone and did not expect anything bad from anyone. Goldilocks entered the house and looked around. She was very happy to see a large table in the middle of the room, and on it were three bowls of stew.

If Goldilocks had been a well-mannered girl, she would have waited until the bears returned - surely they would have invited her to dine with them. After all, the bears were indeed kind, although, of course, they grumbled at times, like all bears. Nevertheless, they had an agreeable disposition, and they loved guests. But Goldilocks was very tired and hungry. She walked over to the table and tasted the chowder from the biggest bowl, Papa Bear.

– Oh, how hot! - she said. Then she scooped a spoon out of Mama Bear's bowl and grimaced, “Ugh, really cold. Then she saw the smallest bowl, Mishutkina, and tried his stew: - Mmm, but this one is just right.

She liked the stew so much that the girl ate everything to the last drop. After eating, Goldilocks decided to take some rest and climbed onto Papa Bear's chair.

– Oh, how tough! she exclaimed, and moved to Mama Bear's chair. “But it’s too soft here,” she said, and moved to the smallest chair, Mishutkin.

“Oh, this one is just right,” she happily jumped on it. Suddenly the chair collapsed under her, and Goldilocks fell straight to the floor.

However, she was no stranger to falling, she got up, dusted herself off and, looking around, saw a ladder. The girl climbed it and ended up in the bear's bedroom. There were three beds here. Goldilocks immediately climbed the biggest one - Papa Bear.

“Oh, how hard,” she said, jumping a little on it, and lay down on the middle bed - Mama Bear.

- It's too soft here.

Finally, she moved onto the smallest bed, Mishutkina: – This one is just right!

Tired, Goldilocks settled herself comfortably and fell fast asleep. In the meantime, the bears walked around the forest and, deciding that their stew had already cooled down, returned home to have lunch and rest.

Papa Bear immediately saw the spoon that Goldilocks had left in his bowl.

– Who ate my stew? he roared in a terrible voice.

Mama Bear came up to the table and also saw a spoon in her bowl.

– Who ate my stew? she growled.

Then Mishutka came running and saw that a spoon had also been left in his bowl, but the stew was gone.

– Someone ate my stew and ate it all! he shouted in his thin voice.

The bears realized that someone had visited their house and left Mishutka without dinner. They began to look around and look around. Papa Bear immediately noticed that his chair had been moved from its usual place.

– Who was sitting on my chair? he roared again.

Mother Bear also saw that her chair was out of place.

– Who was sitting on my chair? she growled.

You already know what happened to the third chair that Goldilocks jumped on.

- Someone was sitting on my chair and broke it! shouted Mishutka in his thin voice.

Then the three bears decided to thoroughly search the whole house. They went up to the bedroom. Papa Bear immediately saw that his bed was rumpled, the pillow was moved.

– Who was on my bed? he roared.

Mama Bear also noticed that her bed was all in disarray.

– Who was on my bed? she growled.

And little Mishutka looked at his bed and saw that everything on it was neat, and the pillow was where it needed to be, only the lovely curls of Goldilocks were scattered over it - which was completely out of place on his bed.

– Who is this lying on my bed? he shouted in his thin voice. - Ah, here, hold it, hold it!

Goldilocks heard Papa Bear's terrible roar in her sleep, but she slept so soundly that she thought it was thunder. She also heard the grumbling of Mother Bear, but it seemed to her that it was the wind humming. And little Mishutka's voice was so thin and piercing that the girl immediately woke up.
