The Three Billy Goats Gruff
Once there were three billy goats who were all named Gruff
They wanted to go up a hillside to eat grass and grow fat
But to reach the hillside they had to cross a bridge
And under the bridge in the stream lived a terrible troll
With eyes as big as plates and a nose as long as a poker
One day the smallest Billy Goat Gruff crossed the bridge. "Trip trap
Trip trap, trip trap," sounded his little hooves on the bridge
"Who is that tripping over my bridge?" roared the troll
"It is only I," said the smallest Billy Goat Gruff
"I am going up to the hillside to eat and grow fat."
"I am going to eat you up," said the troll
"No, please do not eat me. I am so small. Wait for my
Bigger brother. He will make a better meal for you."
"Well, be off then," said the troll
Later the second biggest Billy Goat Gruff passed over the bridge
"Trip trap, trip trap, trip trap," went his hooves on the bridge
"Who is that tripping over my bridge?" roared the troll
"Oh, it is I," said the second biggest Billy Goat Gruff
"I am going up to the hillside to eat and grow fat."
"I am going to eat you up," said the troll
"Oh, please don't. Wait until the big Billy Goat Gruff
Comes. He is larger than I. He will make a better meal."
"Very well," said the troll
Just then the big Billy Goat Gruff came along
"Trip trap, trip trap, trip trap," went his
Hooves on the bridge, which shook with his weight
"Who is that tripping over my bridge?" roared the troll
"It is I, the big Billy Goat Gruff," he said in his deep voice
"Now I am coming to eat you up," roared the troll
"Then come. I have two spears to stick you with."
And that is just what the billy goat did with his great sharp
Horns, and the troll was never seen again. As for the three
Billy Goats Gruff, they climbed the hillside and ate and grew fat
