Big Bad Troll (Reading Ladder Level 2)

A football-loving prince takes on a troll in this hilarious colour-illustrated early reader by Sally Prue. Perfect for children learning to read.

Prince Sam doesn't like being a prince – his 'How-to-Be-a-Good-Prince' lessons are boring and it's hard to play football with a crown on. But then a BIG BAD TROLL turns up and the people of Flat Town need Prince Sam to save them! Will he defeat the troll, or will he get squashed flat??

About the Author

Sally Prue has written lots of stories for children, some of which have been translated into different languages including Thai and Hungarian. She loves the adventure of writing, especially the scary bits and the jokes, and finds that being able to make up stories about people who live in completely different times or places is nearly as much fun as having her own TARDIS
