Indie Book of the Month - September 2024

A funny, heartwarming story about internet trolling and learning to love yourself.

Below the bridge,
beneath the log,
underneath the burping bog,
where townsfolk whispered, cringed and crept,
a terrifying monster slept...


In this funny tale, inspired by both internet trolls and The Three Billy Goats Gruff, there is a terrifying troll that lives under a bridge. Unseen, he delights in shouting nasty things to passers-by. But when a d/Deaf bunny unwittingly faces up to him, he realises that it's not so fun to say nasty things to someone's face. Can Troll finally learn to love himself and others?

Perfect for children aged 3+
· This is a funny story that addresses internet trolling in an accessible way
· A charming character-led tale with Troll learning the error of his ways and getting a second chance
· A d/Deaf inclusive story
