Once upon a time there were three billy goats called "Gruff".
They wanted some nice green juicy grass.
On the other side of the river was some nice green juicy grass.

BUT

There was a bridge and under the bridge lived an ugly old troll.
If anyone crossed the bridge then…. He would gobble them up.

There's nice grass over there

After a while the smallest billy goat Gruff stepped forward and he shouted,

"I’m getting tired of waiting. I’m going to cross the bridge."

So the smallest billy goat went over the bridge.

TRIP TRAP TRIP TRAP!

When he got half way across he heard a noise.

"I wonder who that could be?" he thought.

Suddenly the ugly troll popped up and roared,

"Who’s that trip trapping on my bridge?"

"M … M… me, the smallest billy goat Gruff. I … I... I was just going over the b… b.. bridge for some lovely
g… g... grass ," he squeaked.

I'm a troll

I'll wait

"Well I’m going to gobble you up," shouted the ugly Troll.

"D… d... don’t eat me," squeaked the smallest billy goat Gruff, "e ... e ... eat middle-sized billy goat. He’s much bigger than me. P… p… please let me go across."

"VERY WELL," boomed the ugly Troll, "I shall wait."

So the smallest billy goat Gruff went skipping over the bridge.

Then along came the second billy goat Gruff. He went over the bridge.

TRIP TRAP TRIP TRAP.

When he got half way across a voice bellowed,

"Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge?"

"I... I ... It’s only me, the second billy goat Gruff. I... I... I was just going over the b… b… bridge for some nice juicy green g… g… grass," he said.

"Well I’m going to eat you up,," bellowed the ugly troll.

"D..d..don’t eat me," said the second billy goat Gruff. "E ... e … eat the biggest billy goat. He’s much bigger than me. P..p..please let me go across."
"VERY WELL," boomed the ugly troll, "I shall wait."

So the second billy goat Gruff went skipping over the bridge.

Then the third billy goat Gruff stepped forward and went across the bridge.

TRIP! TRAP! TRIP! TRAP!

When he got halfway across a voice bellowed,

"Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge?"

"It’s me !! The biggest billy goat Gruff. I am going over the bridge for some lovely grass."

"Well ! I’m going to eat you up," shouted the ugly troll.

"Oh no you’re not," replied the biggest billy goat Gruff.

"I’M GOING TO EAT YOU UP."

With that the big billy goat Gruff head butted the troll into the water and he was never seen again.

As for the three billy goats Gruff ...

they ate and ate and ate and became

fatter and fatter and fatter.
