Goldilocks and the Three Bears is a 19th century anonymous fairy tale that British poet Robert Southey published in 1837 under the title "The Story of the Three Bears" describing a badly-behaved old woman who walks through a forest and enters the home of three bears. She eats their porridge, sits on their chairs and sleeps in one of their beds. When the bears return and discover her, she wakes up, jumps out of the window, and is never seen again. A second version of this tale replaced the ugly old woman with a beautiful child which definitely gained audience. The little girl, named Goldilocks remained as the central character over the years. The bears also changed from three bachelors into Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Baby Bear. This tale teaches children not to be so curious, not to intrude and to respect other people’s spaces and habits. They might feel identified with the puzzled small cub who repeats the formula “somebody has been eating my porridge/ sitting on my chair / sleeping in my bed”.
