Imagine a summer camp where fairy tale characters learn to face their fears. Little Red Riding Hood conquers her fear of wolves and Hansel and Gretel acclimate themselves to strangers with candy, but what about Goldilocks? Will she ever get over her fear of bears? Find out in “Goldilocks Goes to Camp!” When two girls get lost on a mountain hike during stormy weather, they take shelter in a friendly stranger’s cabin—but they have no idea who their benefactor really is! Plus, make friendship bracelets, survive a tornado, help a sheep farmer outwit a greedy landowner, and more.
