The Three Billy Goats Gruff
--A Fractured Fairytale
by O.S.
Once upon a time there was very little grass in the valley and the Billy Goats were hungry. They wanted that grass! Up came the first little Billy Goat Gruff to cross the bridge.
The biggest Billy Goat Gruff said, “Are you crazy…the troll will eat you…Let me handle this!” And the biggest Billy Goat went across the bridge Trip…Trap…went the bridge.
So up climbed that mean ugly troll and the big Billy Goat Gruff butted him with horns. Then he trampled him with his hard hooves and tossed him over the bridge into the rushing river.
Then the biggest Billy Goat Gruff went up the hillside. In the green meadow, the three Billy Goats Gruff got so fat that they could hardly walk home again.
They are probably still there now! They lived happily ever after. So ship, ship, shout this tale is all told out!
