The Three Billy Goats Gruff

In The Three Billy Goats Gruff, Paul Galdone retells the classic tale accompanied by his colorful and humorous artwork. In the story, three hungry billy goats want to cross a rushing river to the fields of lush green grass and daisies beyond. However, to get there they have to cross a wooden bridge guarded by a mean and ugly troll. As the first and second billy goats cross the bridge, they manage to outwit the troll. When the third billy goat walks across, he butts the troll right off the bridge and into the river! This silly story about goats and trolls will delight young readers with its lively, rhythmic prose and its engaging illustrations.
