Publisher's summary

Humor abounds in this masterfully-bilingual twist on The Three Billy Goats Gruff that dares to ask the question: why is that troll so grumpy anyway?

Three little cabritos have a clever plan to get past the grumpiest troll in the land. But then one of the billy goats wonders: Why is that gigante so grumpy, anyway?

This thoughtful question sends their plan in a new direction, and the results are better than they ever imagined.

Dashes of humor, empathy, and kindness make this modern twist on a classic tale a charming delight.

Critic reviews

"This...book exposes children to themes such as empathy, kindness, teamwork, and friendship, providing an ideal opportunity for a storytime focused on mindfulness...will motivate youngsters to look beyond appearances." (School Library Journal, starred review)

"Zany charm imbues Elya’s deft retelling of 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff'. Rhymes silly and clever weave in Spanish vocabulary words...the delightful story ends in an unexpected friendship." (Publisher's Weekly, starred review)

"A time-honored folktale gets a makeover with the addition of snappy Spanish vocabulary.... The thoughtful goats in this version of the story find opportunities for empathy and even new friendships when they begin to wonder why the troll is so grumpy.... An enjoyable addition to any folklore collection, this iteration of the classic story packs...linguistic punch." (Kirkus)
