It may seem as if “Goldilocks and the Three Bears” is one of the oldest fairytales there is. But even the oldest tales have antecedents, as the renowned picture book artist Kvĕta Pacovská knows. She has fond memories of being told an even older version of the classic tale, known to her as “The Take-It Take-It Lady.” In this deluxe picture book, created as a special gift for the occasion of her 90th birthday, Ms. Pacovská retells her beloved childhood story, along with lovingly rendered art in her modernist style that make for a fun, colorful, and purely Pacovská-esque experience.
