Synopsis

Can the three Billy Goats Gruff cross the troll’s bridge without being eaten? Find out in the perfect introduction to the beloved must-have classic by two-time Caldecott Honor-winner Paul Galdone.
The three Billy Goats Gruff are hungry! They want to go over the bridge and up the hillside to a fine meadow full of grass and daisies where they can eat and eat and eat.
But under the bridge lives a troll who's as mean as he is ugly… How will they ever get past him?
An energetic, predictable chorus makes for a wonderful read-aloud of this classic tale.
