Gold
A spin on Goldilocks, this wordless picture book challenges assumptions about what makes a family. A trio of bears leaves their townhome for a bike ride; while they are out, a girl enters and begins to make a meal—and a mess. When the bears return, they find their messy house guest asleep on the sofa, but is she really a guest at all? The black-and-white scenes are punctuated with gold to subtly direct the audience’s attention in this evocative take on the classic.
