"When Mr. Goat learns that it's Valentine's Day, he sets out in search of gifts for his first love, but his choices are a little unconventional"--

All Water Buffalo and Crane can think about is how hot it is, day after day, until Goat arrives, dancing and leading them on an adventure.

The book you are holding is called The Three Billy Goats Gruff. The story was first written down in Norway almost 200 years ago. It has been told, over and over again. Here is my version. -- Adapted from inside cover.

In this humorous adaptation of the tale, Arty the troll is really a poetry-loving, non-aggressive guy who is being pressured by the Troll Patrol to act more troll-like or lose his rights to the bridge--so he makes a deal with the largest of the billy goats that makes them both look good.

Following their teacher's lead, Llama Llama speaks to Gilroy Goat and tells him he should not act like a bully on the playground.

Three billy goats must outwit the big, ugly troll that lives under the bridge they have to cross on their way up the mountain.
