The Billy Goats Gruff
Download the Billy Goats Gruff
This story from Norway is short but exciting – and ideal for small children (although it’s bit scary!). Three billy goats, each with the same name (Gruff), are on the way up the hillside to eat grass and get fat. On the way they have to cross a bridge where a hungry troll lies in wait in the ravine.
Read by Natasha. Duration Five Minutes.
ONCE upon a time there were three billy goats, who were to go up to the hillside to eat grass and make themselves fat. The name of each one of them was “Gruff”.
On the way up was a bridge over a cascading stream they had to cross; and under the bridge lived a great ugly troll, with eyes as big as saucers, and a nose as long as a poker.
So first of all came the youngest Billy Goat Gruff to cross the bridge.
“Trip, trap! trip, trap!” went the bridge as he trotted across.
“Who’s that tripping over my bridge?” roared the troll.
“Oh, it is only I, the tiniest Billy Goat Gruff, and I’m going up to the hillside to make myself fat,” said the billy goat, with such a small voice.
“Now, I’m coming to gobble you up,” said the troll.
“Oh, no! pray don’t take me. I’m too little, that I am,” said the billy goat. “Wait a bit till the second Billy Goat Gruff comes. He’s much bigger.”
“Well, be off with you,” said the troll.
A little while after came the second Billy Goat Gruff to cross the bridge.
“TRIP, TRAP! TRIP, TRAP! TRIP, TRAP!” went the bridge.
“Who’s that tripping over my bridge?” roared the troll.
“Oh, it’s the second Billy Goat Gruff, and I’m going up to the hillside to make myself fat,” said the billy goat, who hadn’t such a small voice.
“Now I’m coming to gobble you up,” said the troll.
“Oh, no! Don’t take me. Wait a little till the big Billy Goat Gruff comes. He’s much bigger.”
“Very well! Be off with you,” said the troll.
But just then up came the big Billy Goat Gruff.
“TRIP, TRAP! TRIP, TRAP! TRIP, TRAP!” went the bridge, for the billy goat was so heavy that the bridge creaked and groaned under him.
“Who’s that tramping over my bridge?” roared the troll.
“It’s I! The big Billy Goat Gruff,” said the billy goat, who had an ugly hoarse voice of his own.
“Now I ‘m coming to gobble you up,” roared the troll.
Well, come along! I’ve got two spears,
And I’ll poke your eyeballs out at your ears;
I’ve got besides two curling-stones,
And I’ll crush you to bits, body and bones.
That was what the big billy goat said. And then he flew at the troll, and poked his eyes out with his horns, and crushed him to bits, body and bones, and tossed him out into the ravine and after that he went up to the hillside. There the billy goats got so fat they were scarcely able to walk home again. And if the fat hasn’t fallen off them, why, they’re still fat; and so,

Wow Tim says that was exciting – and now he wants to hear it all over again before he goes to bed. Well Tim, maybe we’ll just have to wait for another night to hear that one. In the meantime, if you want to hear more stories – you can find loads and loads of them over at Storynory.com – For now, from me, Natasha, Bye Bye!

The Billy Goats Gruff
Hello, This is Natasha, and I’m dropping by to tell you a story from Norway about three Billy Goats, and great big fierce Troll who wanted to gobble them up. Prince Bertie’s friend Tim the Tadpole especially requested this story, because it’s small but very interesting, just like he is – so it will only take me a minute or two to tell it two you.
ONCE upon a time there were three billy goats, who were to go up to the hillside to make to much grass and make themselves fat. The name of each one of them was “Gruff”.
On the way up was a bridge over a cascading stream they had to cross; and under the bridge lived a great ugly troll, with eyes as big as saucers, and a nose as long as a poker.

“Who’s that tripping over my bridge?” roared the troll.

“Oh, no! pray don’t take me. I’m too little, that I am,” said the billy goat. “Wait a bit till the second Billy Goat Gruff comes. He’s much bigger.”

All of your stories are wonderful. However, in following the text, there are often differences from what you are reading, which may confuse someone who is working on reading fluency or vocabulary. If the text and audio matched, this would be a perfect educational use for this site.

i loved it and i wish u all a merry Christmas. oh and Bertie i think ur story is awesome. lili u have awesome christmas songs where do u get them from?
its nice but theres a problem and that is it doesn’t make sense in the end and you should change it to “they were really fat and blew up …….j.k lol
i love the echo in the story
i wish it came with a video
I know my nose the know it all, my nose knows! I wrote this story; I wanna say hi to myself and all the Natashas; we’re all Natasha. I’m Natasha 3 yrs old all the time. HAHAHA I think it is so funny when the Troll says: “Now I‘m coming to gobble you up,”… and it’s funny because it says: roared the Troll… and it repeats itself is why it’s so funny and it makes me laugh. YES I like the story.
[...] StoryNory has a reading of the traditional version. [...]
it was boring-++++++++————————-++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++——————-++++++++++++++++++++++++++————————-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++–+–+——-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
cool
i love it! i learned that dont go on a bridge that has a troll under it . p.s i love it and it was cool. and awesome!
so funny
Had this story when I was a kid, loved it and the teacher told it so well! Now as an artist I’m drawing up a picture of it. Should be fun!
the end of the story was disgusting
i dont think this story is for childrens
Be of with your nose natasha
very scary for my son di not like ecoing
What does: “And if the fat hasn’t fallen off them, why, they’re still fat; and so,” mean??? is this correct english??
wow its just like the book
what if the goat did not head butted the troll?
one time there was 100000000000000000000000000 troll and they lived right under your nose for the rest go to nowhere
This story was really scary for my daughter,Mary.She really didn’t like the ending Tim.Sorry for spoiling your fun.

Lovely but more exspresion
thats sad!!!!!!!
Ther once was 10000000000 ogers. And they lived under the grownd. Every time they hered a animal they killed the animal. One time ther came a lion. They hered the lion. The ogers came out. Soon came onother lion. It was battle! And the lions tryed to kill all the ogers. So the lions won the battle!! And the forest was happley ever after! And now all the animals could come to the forest.
once upon a time there were 100000000000000
billy goats who killed the oger and ate so much grass that they all blew up!!!
THE END!
the first one was very funny at the end
Dear Elikin
RIGHT click the link that says Download the Audio – a dialog should open up in your browser. Depending on whether you use Internet Explorer or Safari or some other browser choose Save Target As or Save File As.
If that doesn’t work, use iTunes.
I hope this helps.
Hi, I’m an English teacher and I really want to use your stories in my lessons. But I really need to have the audio in order to play the tales in my classroom, Is there a chance to download it? Thanks.

Here is another one i hope you like it. We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy Perfect Light
Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to rein
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Pray’r and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God most high
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light
Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heav’n replies
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

i love this story so much……………………….
I am researching the many stories of the Goats Gruff for our Children’s Lit project and essay for my college semester. Thanks for the versions you provide on here. Have found about 7-8 so far.
I love your stories and I like Natasha! Bye Bye!
Hell Yeh-Jun, I didn’t know there were two stories like The Billy Goat’s Gruff.
Interest but bertie, why there are two stories that same each other?
i forget, i liked it. Thank you Natasha. it was excellent.
i read this story first retold by sharon hurst. Troll is a fictional character from Scandinavian legends, usually a dwarf and trip, trap represents a tapping sound.
This story was very exicting..
very good story!!!!!!!
Thank you
I LOVE THIS STORY!
Thank you so much. These stories have made nap time a whole lot easier Josh loves listening to them.
It is a story that I head for the first time 34 years ago. I guess it could seem a little harsh to some people, but I think it is awesome. It reminds me of Aesops’s fables and a story that can stand the test of time and have good morale fabric.
Greg, thank you for letting us know. We really are interested in how teachers use our stories, and would like to share ideas for teaching with stories as much as possible – so that’s really useful.
My kindergarten loved your story. We are doing reading exercises over it such as sequencing and reenacting it after making mask to represent each of the goats and the troll. Thanks
I am the oldest of three girls in our family and I am in charge. That makes me the big Billy Goat Gruff. I needed to hear this story as it has been years since I read or heard it,. It was great. Thank you. I will share this with the Middle & Little Billy Goats Gruff.
Thanks My Little Brother And Sister Like Me To Read It To Them Every Day
