The Troll

I read the children’s book called, ‘The Troll,’ last week.

This children’s book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by David Roberts.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a troll and some pirates.

It’s a hilarious story about a troll that lived under a bridge and pirates that lived on a pirate ship.

Trolls liked to eat goats, but unfortunately no goats ever walked over this trolls bridge so the troll had to eat fish instead.

Now fed up with eating fish he wanted to eat anything but fish.

But when he finds creatures to eat, they all tell him about the goats on the next bridge, following their advice he goes from bridge to bridge in search of these goats.

The pirates on the other hand had a treasure map but after digging for the treasure on numerous islands they realised that either the map was wrong, or they’d forgotten which island the treasure was buried on. Also, they too were fed up of eating fish.

So, what do you think happened when the troll and the pirates met-up?

To find out you’ll either have to read the book or watch the video on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think?

It’s a great book for young children, I’d recommend it.
