2.0 out of 5 stars
Better versions out there...,
By NoseInBook (Midwest) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Three Billy-goats Gruff (Easy-To-Read Folktale) (Paperback)
This is not the best version available of this fairytale...Stephen Carpenter's is much better. In this version, the illustration and text don't even match. The troll is described as having a nose as long as a poker and eyes as big as saucers...but the troll in the pictures has a bulbous nose and unremarkable eyes. I don't know if it's an exact translation from Norwegian, but the grammar is occasionally ackward. The metaphors in the speech given by the biggest Billy Goat to the troll have to be explained to a younger audience...which isn't bad in itself but contributes to the uneven flow in the text. The pictures are good, too bad the writing isn't.

The three billy goats gruff- a norwegian folktale,
By Carrie (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Three Billy-goats Gruff (Easy-To-Read Folktale) (Paperback)
I am a preschool teacher for three year olds and they all love this book. They ask me to read it over and over again. They love the colorful drawings and the silly voices I add to the characters.

Three Billy Goats Gruff - A Norweigan Folktale,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Three Billy-goats Gruff (Easy-To-Read Folktale) (Paperback)
This book has captured my two year old's imagination. The simple text and entertaining drawings have him enthralled. He's read it so many times he now reads it to me.
