This book is about three billy goats who all have the same name of Gruff. They are traveling to the hillside to eat and get fat. Their journey takes them across a bridge where a troll lives. They must all pass the troll without being eaten in order to get to the other side.

Personal reaction: It is a cute
Classroom extentions: I think this book would great to use in a lesson about bullying and how to handle a situation when it occurs beside fighting. This could also be used for somewhat older children in a drama class. They could divide into groups of four and act out there version of the story.
