Review
This flip-up flap book has the three Billy Goats Gruff in control. In this version the scrawny, decidedly under-dressed troll is no great threat. He is a bully under the bridge who is put in his place by each of the Billy Goats Gruff in turn. A lively retelling with uncomplicated illustrations, children will enjoy the flip-up flaps, some of which extend the story. -- David and Ronda Armitage Child Education 20051201

Great Story But Ending Has Become Too P.C.,
By RCL (Alexandria VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Three Billy Goats Gruff (Flip Up Fairy Tales) (Paperback)
My children loved this story when they were little 30 years ago. I am now buying the book for their kids. The story is simple but intriguing - it has a monster, it has some repetition, it has sturdy though simple pop-ups. But in the original, the biggest billy goat butted the troll off of the bridge to be swept away in the stream - good triumphs over evil. In this version, the billy goats stay away from the troll after tricking him, and the troll just packs his bag and moves away -- confrontation avoided. Somehow, it's not quite right.

The ending had been changed from the version I grew up reading. I didn't think it fit as well. The quality of the book construction was good and could withstand the handling given by a youngster. The art work also seem to hold the young readers attention.
5.0 out of 5 stars

really liked this book overall. The kids really liked the flaps and the illustrations were good, although the troll was rather bizarre looking.
