Retells the folktale about three billy goats who trick a troll that lives under the bridge. Includes factual sidebars, discussion of fairy tale traits, and glossary.

Once there was a bridge and a terrible and VERY hungry troll lived underneath it. When the three Billy Goats Gruff decide to clip-clop across the bridge to get to the grassy ridge, the troll is already imagining all the way to prepare a delicious goat dinner. But the troll underestimates those seemingly sweet but oh-so-savvy goats!
