The Three Billy Goats Gruff
Once upon a time, there lived three billy goat brothers: Little Billy, Middle Billy, and Big Billy.
One day, they decided to cross the bridge to eat the sweet green grass on the other side.
There was only one problem. A mean troll lived under it.
CLOMP, CLOMP, CLOMP! Little Billy started across the bridge. Then he heard a craggy voice.
“Stop there! I am going to eat you."
“Wait for my brother. He is bigger and much more delicious than I!” cried Little Billy.
“What a fine idea,” said Troll, licking his lips. And with that, Little Billy crossed the bridge.
CLOMP, CLOMP, CLOMP! Middle Billy started across the bridge. Then he heard a craggy voice.
“Stop there! I am going to eat you up!” yelled Troll.
“Wait for my brother. He is bigger and much more delicious than I!” cried Middle Billy.
“What a fine idea,” said Troll, licking his lips. And with that, Middle Billy crossed the bridge.
CLOMP, CLOMP, CLOMP! Big Billy started across the bridge. Then he heard a craggy voice.
“Stop there! I am going to eat you up!” yelled Troll. “Okay said Big Billy, for he had a sneaky plan.
When Troll climbed onto the bridge, Big Billy butted him so hard that he fell in the water with a giant SPLASH!
After that, the three brothers crossed the bridge whenever they liked. And, my, was
that sweet green grass delicious!
Thanks a lot!
