We all know the familiar fairy tale…
Goldilocks finds the three bears’ house, wanders in, tries their chairs, porridge, and beds, they find her asleep with half of their porridge eaten.

Consider how this tale might be told differently if told using one of the following points of view:
  1. 1st Person, Major Character (Goldilocks)
  2. 1st Person Peripheral (Mama)
  3. 1st Person Peripheral (Papa)
  4. 1st Person Unreliable (Baby Bear)
  5. 3rd Person, Single Vision/Limited Omniscience (Mama or Papa)

Choose one of the above options and write an account of the story’s events from that point of view.

Be sure to write which viewpoint you have selected at the top of the page.
