review 1: This story is about three goats who are trying to cross the Troll's bridge to get to the green pastures so they can eat. However, the Troll gets sick of hearing them tip-tap over his bridge so he warns them that if they cross the bridge again, he will eat them. The three goats run home to their Mom and tell her what the Troll said. She decides to make a gift for the Troll, and in return the Troll lets the goats cross over his bridge so they can eat and get fluffy fur.Great illustrations, good for idioms, and good for conflict-resolution.
review 2: Mortimer, R. (2010). The Three Billy Goats Fluff. Toronto, ON: Scholastic, Inc.Fluff plays the starring role in this modern adaptation of the timeless tale, The Three Billy Goats Gruff. The three Billy Goats still hav
... moree trouble crossing Mr. Troll`s bridge, but it`s Mother Goat`s knitting skills that save the day in a pleasingly predicable way.Distributed in softcover especially for the school market, Mortimer`s story nods at the sweet sing song rhythm found in the original text. Children who are familiar with the classic yarn will enjoy the sympathetic twist of Mother Goat`s use of her kid`s fluffy fleeces; however, the vocabulary is well suited to a pre-schooler on some pages and demands the comprehension of a primary child on others. This book is suitable for children aged 4 through 8. Books Factor Award, Simply Books in Manchester less
