The Troll

About The Troll

Dive into a hilarious pirate adventure with 'The Troll' by David Roberts, a captivating picture book that promises laughter and fun for young readers. Meet the grumpy Troll, who is utterly fed up with his monotonous diet of fish and dreams of a delicious, juicy goat. His culinary desires are a constant source of frustration, making him long for something more exciting to eat.

Meanwhile, on what seems to be the wrong island (again!), the bumbling pirate Hank Chief and his crew are also having a miserable time with their meals. Despite their love for fish, their slimy, soggy suppers are far from appealing. Their only hope for a decent meal lies in finding their long-lost buried treasure, which would allow them to hire a proper ship's cook.

Watch the delightful chaos unfold as these two very different worlds unexpectedly collide. The pirates' quest for treasure leads them directly into the Troll's grumpy domain, setting the stage for a gloriously comic encounter. From the acclaimed partnership of Julia Donaldson and David Roberts, 'The Troll' is a charming and witty story, perfect for children aged 3-8, offering a truly laugh-out-loud experience.
