Goldilocks is a lucky girl. When the Three Bears discovered she had gobbled up their breakfast, they might have gobbled her up instead. But Folk Tales are peculiarly kind with the young in ways that Nature seldom is in the Wild.

What We Rhinos also notice in this story is the emphasis on Goldilocks’ contentment; things must comply with her desires to make the grade. Entitlement apparently has to start somewhere… “Just Right” indeed!

In the Wild, ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ is told from quite a different angle, you may believe.
