The Letter-snatching Troll

Norwegian title: Bukkene Bruse - Bokstavtyven Troll

Fantastic rhyming fun with the Billy Goats Gruff and the troll!

What happens if you take away a letter from a word? Rice can turn into ice and reel into eel. And what if you add a letter? Read can turn into bread.

The Letter-Snatching Troll is full of crazy rhymes that will spread laughter and love of language, and stars the colourful characters you already know from the Billy Goat Gruff books. A fun and original introduction to letters and reading.
