Little does he know his parents have spun a few white lies about life in Biddlesden - its forests, mountains and healthy troll population. Fresh from Norway Grumpa is looking forward to seeing their wonderful new home.

He isn't prepared for suburbia, or worse still - people. But most distressing of all, with no real forest where will they catch the goat for their traditional festive goat pie? They decide to steal a goat from the local farm, but when they bring the goat home, Grumpa doesn't react in quite the way they expected - is that fear in his eyes? Another adventure with the wonderful and hilarious troll family and their long-suffering neighbours the Priddles. Read more Read less.

Product description

Well, there's nothing wrong with this vaguely Dahl-esque fable. Fresh from Norway Grumpa is looking forward to seeing their wonderful new home. With an OverDrive account, you can save your favorite libraries for at-a-glance information about availability. When a family of Trolls moves into the quiet suburb of Biddlesden, it's likely that things are going to get ugly and possibly hairy and smelly very soon, since trolls like to roar as loudly as possible and stomp their hairy feet. He says it was a useful apprenticeship - if the audience didn't like the play, they talked through it or threw bits of paper at the actors. Ollie Reeder rated it really liked it Dec 03, In Goat Pie, the Trolls celebrate Trollmas at the same time as their surburban English neighbours the Priddles are trying to celebrate Christmas.

Mar 02, Jj rated it it was amazing Shelves: The Troll book is about a family a trolls who move next door to the Priddle family. And through the whole story the Priddle family thinks that the troll family eats humans and are burying them next door. But in fact they heard them wrong and from that point on they begin to start their on investigation of the Troll family.

I love storyline and the kids at the center thought most parts were really funny and enjoyable. But like all kids and adults. Some part were disgusting. Oct 26, Maisy Albaugh added it Shelves: It had fun divers characters to follow from chapter to chapter. There were characters ranging from trolls, to humans. It keeps the readers interested to see what is going to happen the next.

This would be an enjoyable book for children, catching and keeping their interest with the humorous plot line. Jan 22, Janet rated it liked it Shelves: Lots of great troll illustrations, and a funny premise. The resolution was too abrupt, and the story stayed at a surface level.

Still, this easy children's chapter book was a fast, fun read. Might be good for reluctant readers, despite some British terminology.

Feb 04, Jenny rated it did not like it Shelves: I really could not get into this book, however I kept reading it in the hope it would get better. I felt like I was reading a book that a 3rd grader took to their in school publishing workshop and a had the story loosely edited.

To adult eyes it looks like a commentary on racial prejudice, but told for laughs, so I'm not sure if this could be a teaching point. Feb 12, Amanda Caldwell rated it really liked it Shelves: Zachery loved this book, it was super funny!
