Synopsis:

Each day on his way to school, Trigg is confronted by a troll who demands money to cross the bridge. But Trigg gets an idea. He and the troll will ask riddles. If Trigg wins, he can cross the bridge for free. The plan works the first time, but the next day the toll-bridge troll again demands to be paid. Trigg can't ask a riddle every day.

Review: "The swift, puckish story and its plucky hero will appeal tremendously, especially to the many children inspired to play toll-bridge by The Three Billy Goats Gruff.--Publishers Weekly "A tale that's sure to leave imaginative youngsters glancing behind trees and under bushes on their way home from school!"--School Library Journal "A fun choice."--Booklist
