The terrible trolls
Author: Lori-Ann Preston • Illustrator: Martinus van Tee
Format: Paperback
Recommended for ages 11+
Meet the terrible trolls:
Their hair is greasier than slap chips. Their feet rot. They have warts on top of warts, and they eat goats for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Emotions are for softies, and the most important rule they live by: Never be kind!
Ollie has a BIG problem: He likes to be clean; vegetables are his favourite food; he is kind and only wants to paint all day. What will happen to him if he breaks the clan's rules? They might take him to Nana Nasty, or worse, send him away to the human lands …
Ontmoet die aaklige trolle:
Hulle is olieriger as slaptjips. Hulle voete vrot. Hulle het fratte bo-op fratte en hulle eet bokke vir ontbyt, middagete en aandete. Emosies is vir swakkelinge, en die belangrikste reël is: Moet nooit gaaf wees nie!
Ollie het ’n GROOT problem: Hy hou daarvan om skoon te wees. Groente is sy gunstelingkos. Hy is vriendelik en wil die heeldag net verf. Wat sal met hom gebeur as hy een van die groep se reels breek? Miskien sal hulle hom na Nana Nasty toe stuur, of erger, miskien stuur hulle hom na waar die mense woon …
