Synopsis

"Goldilocks and the Three Bears” is the first of the three books in the first series of the CAMathories™ Folktale Mathematics™ curriculum (3-4 years old). Series 1: Count and Recite 1 to 5. "Goldilocks and the Three Bears” is a popular British folktale. It tells how a young girl, Goldilocks, goes into the Three Bears’ Cottage in a forest where the three bears live. We learn about what she finds there and gives a surprise to herself and the three bears! Readers will be counting up to 3 with Goldilocks, and learn the stable order principle that it does not matter how the three objects are arranged, the number stays the same. Two other books in the same series are: “Paco and the Giant Chili Plant” (from Mexico), and “5 Little Monkeys Catching the Moon” (from China).
