Me and You

by Anthony Browne

*****

I love this artistic version of Goldilocks and the three bears.  It takes place in a modern, urban setting where the human-like bears seem to coexist with people.  It is told from the baby bear's colorful perspective, but we also get Goldilocks's angle through black and white pictures.  Their two stories collide as color meets black and white.  I love the deeper meaning in this book...the pictures tell a story that goes far beyond the expressed words.
