High up on a mountain live three billy goats named Gruff. Having eaten all the grass in their field, they set off in search of pastures new. Across a river is the richest, greenest meadow they have ever seen - but in order to reach it, they must cross a wooden bridge. The bridge is guarded by a mean ugly troll, who gobbles up anyone who attempts to cross it! How will the three billy goats Gruff avoid the same fate...? The timeless tale is retold in this enchanting book, with appropriate vocabulary and familiar language that children can easily follow.
