Goldilocks was a little naughty girl who one day entered in a Bear’s house (when the bears were not there) and tried the mummy’s and daddy’s porridge  (she didn’t like them) and ate the baby’s porridge.  Then she felt tired and tried daddy’s and mummy’s chair (but she didn’t like them) and sat on baby’s chair, but the chair was broken. She was tired and looked for a  bed.

In the bedroom she found three beds. She tried mummy and daddy’s bed but she didn’t like them and she slept in baby’s bed.
