An enchanting, rhyming text featuring a whole host of familiar and much-loved fairy-tale characters on a new adventure.
Goldilocks wants to play and wants someone to join her adventure. But Mum, Fairy Godmother, the three bears and a whole family of familiar fairy-tale friends are too busy with their chores to play. Her marvellous plans are met by 'Not Now, Goldilocks!' but everyone promises to play with her later ...
Join little Goldilocks and her big imagination as she discovers that even when loved ones are too busy to play, adventures for one can be just as much fun. And when she really needs them, her family and friends will be there for her to play and help save the day.
Not Now, Goldilocks! is an energetic, rhyming text that follows the fun-seeking Goldilocks on her journey of discovery through fairy-tale land and into a realm of creative play. A book to encourage and inspire independent play in children with a reassuring message of love and support even when their grown-ups are busy with other things.
Written by Holly Ryan, author of Never Mess With a Pirate Princess and giggle-inducing illustrations by Navya Raju, an illustrator and designer from Hyderabad, India. Children will adore spotting the characters they know and love in a new and funny story.
Holly Ryan grew up in a little Cornish fishing village where she spent most of her childhood exploring rock pools. She completed a degree in fashion but soon found out she was RUBBISH at sewing. After that she moved to London and did lots of boring things in swanky offices but slowly became uninspired by the rat-race so moved back home. She’s now back living by the sea in Devon with her partner, two crazy little boys and a blind cat, and when she’s not entertaining little people in her local pre-school, she spends her days doing what she loves the most…. writing for children. She is never without a notepad and loves to write funny rhyming texts that make children laugh out loud. She is also a huge advocate of reading for pleasure. Holly also likes, amongst other things, pickled eggs, rock pooling (still), mushroom hunting and sucking her thumb. She HATES coriander.
