The Tickel Troll

A troll has decided to live under a bridge over the Tickel River, and the villagers nearby are afraid. Their first thought is to make him leave by force, but one of them thinks they should try a different approach. How will they choose to handle the problem? Come take a trip to the land of Qwee, where stereo types will be broken, unfounded fears allayed, and the treasure of play discovered. Beginning like a fairy tale, ending in bouncing rhymes, enjoy a story that encourages a loving playfulness with positive messages. The Tickel Troll is meant to be an interactive book between adult and child (ages 4-12), reader and listener. While all will be prompted to inquire about some of the uncommon, but not complex words, it also encourages a loving, physical playfulness while being read. Our goal was to hopefully produce a future classic whose original pictures contain subtle hidden clues and a writing style that changes with the mood of the story.
