Trip-trap, trip-trap. Three goats want to cross a bridge to reach sweet grass on the hillside, but a hungry troll waits underneath. The smallest goat goes first, then the next, and then the biggest Billy Goat Gruff must face the danger for himself. Paul Galdone’s version of this Norwegian folktale is built for reading aloud, with strong rhythm, repeated phrases, and a rising sense of suspense. Young readers can feel the bridge shake, hear the troll’s growl, and enjoy the clever pattern as each goat tries to get across. For ages 6 to 8, this picture book is a lively classic for children who like animal tales, trolls, bold voices, and folktales with just the right amount of fright.
