"Oh, please let me cross," said the middle-sized goat, But the troll only snapped, "What's your hurry? With some herbs and some spices and served up with rice, You would make a delicious goat curry!" Kids can pull back the flap on the bridge that reveals none other than the ornery, purple-haired troll, while other flaps reveal the troll's vile thoughts of eating goatburgers and fries. The final spread is a pop-up of the troll falling over his own bridge, while the goats rejoice and eat sweet grass.
