PARENTS: Glee's Chris Colfer On Why Goldilocks is So Likable in His Graphic Novel: 'Her Heart is Just as Golden as Her Hair'

Chris Colfer, 31, can't recall a time that he wasn't writing for fun. When his memorable role on Glee ended in 2015, he had already penned the first four middle-grade chapter books in the best-selling Land of Stories series, an empowering and thoroughly modern take on fairy tales. Colfer's latest, Goldilocks: Wanted Dead or Alive, is a graphic novel that takes a deep dive into the origin story of one of the most popular characters in his series.
"Goldilocks is everything I've ever wanted to be. She's strong, brave, smart as a whip, an amazing acrobat, a fearless warrior, but most important, her heart is just as golden as her hair," he says. "She's been painted as an outlaw, but she's willing to do what it takes to protect the people she loves."
Parents chatted with Colfer, who is developing the series for the big screen.
