Description
by Retold by Paul Galdone
Can the three Billy Goats Gruff cross the troll’s bridge without being eaten? Find out in the perfect board book 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.
