The Mermaid by Jan Brett

Ms. Brett retells the traditional Goldilocks story with a Japanese spin.
Kiniro, a mermaid, and her puffer fish friend, Puffy, visit an octopus family home while they leave for pre-breakfast swim.
I found the story line a bit stilted.  The illustrations are beautiful.
Strategies: compare/contrast; text to text connections
-Borrowed from the library.
