The Fair One With Golden Locks

The Fair One with Golden Locks is a fairy tale by Madame d'Aulnoy. It has also been translated under the title "Pretty Goldilocks", which is not to be confused with the Story of the Three Bears. A princess is so beautiful and has such golden hair that she is known as Pretty Goldilocks. A neighboring king falls in love with her from her description and sends his servant to plead his cause. Much to his disappointment, the princess only agrees if a series of near-impossible tasks is completed for her. Luckily for the King, his faithful servant is wiser and more resourceful than he is; the girl will be conquered, but there does not lie the end of the story. This charming fairy tale is read by Katie Haigh.
