Employing the familiar story line of "Goldilocks and the Three Bears," Natasha Yim's tale introduces readers to the cultural rituals of Chinese New Year--a celebration that children may or may not be familiar with. Through the presentation of a new culture, this book helps to broaden a child's understanding of the world.

A retelling of a favorite fairy tale, set in a bustling contemporary Chinatown, that celebrates Chinese New Year.

It's Chinese New Year, and Goldy Luck’s mother wants her to take a plate of turnip cakes to the neighbors. The Chans aren’t home, but that doesn’t stop Goldy from trying out their rice porridge, their chairs, and their beds—with disastrous results.

In this funny and festive retelling of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Natasha Yim and Grace Zong introduce a plucky heroine who takes responsibility for her actions and makes a new friend (and a whole plate of turnip cakes!), just in time for Chinese New Year.

Includes back matter about Chinese New Year and a recipe for turnip cakes.
