About this story
A Norwegian folktale about three goats — all named Gruff — who want to cross a bridge to reach greener grass. But beneath the bridge waits a hungry troll. A tale that may invite thoughts about courage, teamwork — and what can happen when someone wants more than they truly need. The tale was published in Norske folkeeventyr around 1840.
