The Three Billy Goats Gruff
Once upon a time there was not one, not two but three Billy Goats Gruff who lived beside a sparkling
stream.
Early one morning they wanted to cross the rickety bridge to eat the lush green grass on the other
side but an ugly troll lived under the bridge.
First, Baby Billy Goat Gruff went trip trapping over the bridge.
“Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge?” roared the ugly troll.
“’Tis I, Baby Billy Goat Gruff. I’m going to the meadow to eat the lush green grass”.
“Well, I’m coming to gobble you up!” roared the troll.
“No, no – wait for my older brother. He’s much bigger than I”.
So the troll let Baby Billy Goat pass by.
Next, Middle Sized Billy Goat Gruff went trip trapping over the bridge.
“Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge?” roared the ugly troll.
“’Tis I, Middle Sized Billy Goat Gruff. I’m going to the meadow to eat the lush green grass”.
“Well, I’m coming to gobble you up!” roared the troll.
“No, no – wait for my older brother. He’s much bigger than I”.
So the troll let Middle Sized Billy Goat pass by.
Finally, Big Billy Goat Gruff went trip trapping over the bridge.
“Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge?” roared the ugly troll.
“’Tis I, Big Billy Goat Gruff. I’m going to the meadow to eat the lush green grass”.
“Well, I’m coming to gobble you up!” roared the troll.
“Oh no you won’t”, roared the Big Billy Goat Gruff.
And he butted the ugly troll with his sharp horns and the troll went spinning into the water with a huge splash! He was never seen again.
In the end, the three Billy Goats Gruff crossed the bridge to eat the lush green grass on the other side and they were happy!
All the puppets we made and played with.
Might be easier to download this little film to share at home. The Youtube post was not working correctly. Sorry for the delay...MH
