79 The Three Billy Goats Gruff ELT Abridgement by Damien Tunnacliffe and Phoenix Publishing Services 75

80 There were once three billy goats: Baby Billy Goat, Little Billy Goat and Big Billy Goat. In winter they lived in a warm barn and ate dry hay all day long. There was no fresh grass. Little Billy Goat looked out of the window. Spring will come soon, he said. I want to eat fresh grass. 76

81 Spring came and soon it was warm. The grass started to grow green and fresh. The farmer came and opened the door. You can go out now, he said to them. They ran up the mountain path. Up, up they ran to the meadows. There the grass was sweet. Baby Billy Goat ran quickly. I ll be at the meadows first, he thought. I always like to be first. Soon he came to an old bridge. He stopped. He looked at the bridge and the meadow on the other side. Mmm, he thought. Fresh, green grass. I m very hungry. I ll run across the bridge and go into the meadow. 77

82 But an ugly troll lived under the bridge. This is my bridge, he said to himself. Nobody can cross this bridge or I will eat them for my dinner! The farmers were afraid and never crossed the bridge. But Baby Billy Goat didn t remember the troll. He started to walk across the bridge. His only thought was the fresh, green grass. Suddenly the troll jumped up! Who s crossing my bridge? he cried in an ugly voice. Baby Billy Goat was very frightened. I I I want to... to... to eat the sweet grass in the meadow, he said very quietly. I m going to eat you, you silly little goat, roared the troll. Oh no! Pl pl please don t eat me. I m only a very little baby goat. Wait a few minutes and my brother, Little Billy Goat, will come... He ll be nicer to eat than me! 78

83 The troll stopped. Perhaps he s right, he thought. All right, he said to Baby Billy Goat. You can go. I ll wait for your bigger brother. Baby Billy Goat ran across the bridge into the meadow. The grass was very sweet. Soon after, Little Billy Goat came to the bridge. He saw the fresh, green grass on the other side. I m so hungry, he thought. And he began to cross the bridge. 79

84 The troll jumped up again. He was angry now and hungry. Who s crossing my bridge? he roared. Little Billy Goat looked up. He was very frightened. I want to eat the sweet grass in the meadow, he said. Ha! You re not going to eat the grass in the meadow. I m going to eat you! Oh, please don t eat me. You see I m really thin after the winter in the barn. But my big brother... he s really big and he will be much nicer to eat. 80

85 The troll thought again. Perhaps you re right, he said. I ll wait for your big brother. Then I ll have a really big meal! I m so hungry! Little Billy Goat ran away quickly. He was very happy. A few seconds later, Big Billy Goat came to the bridge. He was very strong and he had two huge horns on his head. He remembered the troll but he was not afraid. He began to cross the bridge. 81

86 ... he charged. His huge horns hit the troll. Thwack! Aaagh! cried the troll. The huge horns lifted the troll up, up in the air... Up jumped the troll again. This time he was very angry and hungry. He forgot to say Who s crossing my bridge? His eyes were angry and he showed his huge teeth. He ran at Big Billy Goat. I m going to eat you. I m going to eat you, he roared. No, you re not going to eat me, Big Billy Goat said. I m not afraid of you. I m strong. You ll see. He put his head down and he showed his huge horns and... 82

87 Up, up in the air went the troll and over the side of the bridge. Down, down he came with a huge splosh! into the water. The river carried him away and they never saw him again. Big Billy Goat went across the bridge. Nice grass, huh? he said to his two brothers. They didn t answer. Their mouths were full of sweet grass. And they all just ate and ate and ate. 83
