"Houghton Mifflin Harcourt has re-released a set of Paul Galdone's classic folklore stories, including The Three Billy Goats Gruff, which originally came out in 1973. The three billy goats Gruff want to cross a bridge to reach a meadow full of delicious, green grass, but a terrible troll lives under the bridge. As each goat tries to trip across the bridge the troll threatens to eat him for dinner, but the goats are smarter than the greedy troll. Galdone's classic retelling and illustrations remain strong today, nearly 40 years after this title's original publication date."

    " I don't think I had ever actually heard the story of Three Billy Goats Gruff. I know that it was part of the inspiration for Stephen Kind's It. If I remember correctly, he though of this story as he listened to his boots going over a bridge, which became the kissing bridge in the novel. Having now read a version of the original fairy tale, I can see how this might have lead to a monster that hides in the sewer and eats children. As to this version of the tale, it was alright. Not a favorite for me. I thought the troll was a little too ugly, scary even. The way they trick the troll seems too easy, too. "
