The Troll Who Lived Under the Bridge

In this telling of The Troll Who Lived Under the Bridge, the Troll sets off to replant and water the barren, brown side, and stop the goats from destroying the lush, green side. The bridge covered river is all that separates the two hillsides. Can the Troll stop the billy-goat brothers named "Gruff" from eating all the grass and turning the hill from green to brown? This story offers a valuable resource management lesson-- the importance of taking care of our environment so it can be enjoyed for years to come.
