Synopsis: (from the publisher) This classic story is a favorite with toddlers, who will cheer on the three clever billy goats who outsmart a mean troll. With plenty of repetition, this adventure is perfect for reading aloud and for joining in, and a satisfying ending provides a reassuring touch.

Craft ideas:

• Make a headband with horns, and re-enact the story. (No headbutting!)
• Use paper bags to make troll and goat puppets.
