Often when I finish a book, I wonder what becomes of the characters after the magical words "and they all lived happily ever after." What does that mean, anyway?

In "Goldilocks Returns," this question is answered. Let's find out what happened to everyone's favorite blonde trespasser.

Goldi deeply regrets the life of crime she led as a child. She has done everything she can to live it down - she changed her hairstyle and she now runs a shop to sell locks to keep trespassers out. But she dreams about bears and the guilt is running so deep, even her customers are starting to look like bears. Finally she can't take it any more and heads back out to the woods.

Papa Bear and Mama Bear are now quite elderly. Baby Bear was scared so badly by the whole "Goldilocks" incident that he is forever frozen in time as a child, with a wee little voice. As usual, they were preparing to eat porridge for breakfast, and as usual, it was too hot to eat. So they headed out on a walk.

When Goldi arrived, she found that the door swung open just as it always did. She decided to equip the bears with some of her very best locks and deadbolts.

Then she noticed the same old porridge on the table, and decided to supply the cupboards with healthy food. She then decorated everything with a pompom fringe.

Then she repaired Baby Bear's chair, and moved some of the stuffing from Mama's chair into Papa's, so both of them would be just right. Exhausted, she went upstairs and fell fast asleep on Baby Bear's bed.

When the bears returned, they were not at all impressed with any of the upgrades. And the next time they saw a little girl coming toward their house, they let her right in, with the highest hopes that she would eat all their food and break all their chairs. Then everything could get back to normal.

This book was a delightful sequel to the original classic and will be enjoyed by parents and children alike.

(This book was published in 2000 by Simon and Schuster and was illustrated by the author.)
