"Goldilocks and the Three Bears" and the older story title, "The Story of the Three Bears", are two variations of an old fairy tale. The original tale has three bachelor bears living in a house in the forest and a dirty old woman as the story's antagonist. The second fairy tale is an adaptation that introduced Goldilocks to the story as the antagonist. The second variant has the three bachelor bears transformed into Papa, Mama and Baby Bear. Both the little girl and the Bear family have remained in the tale through various editions over the years.
