Three Billy Goats Gruff

Paul Galdone's classic retelling of a lively nursery tale."Galdone's dramatic, colourful illustrations are well suited to this old Scandinavian tale. Even the scale of the pictures seems to tell the story; the first Billy Goat Gruff looks small against a looming bridge; soon the troll completely fills the page, and then the big Billy Goat Gruff spreads across two. The third Billy Goat Gruff's gruesome challenge is deleted, and he butts his wild-haired, blue-nosed, yellow-toothed enemy into the water, marches triumphantly up a daisy-covered hillside, and makes himself fat."Galdone, Paul is the author of 'Three Billy Goats Gruff ', published 2008 under ISBN 9780618894994 and ISBN 0618894993.
