You, Your Child and Your Library Childrens learning starts at home and you are your childs first and best teacher. Reading together is the most important gift that you can give your young child. We hope that you will introduce them to the magic and wonder of books as early as possible.
In this workbook, you will find many activities to do with your child and lots of good books to read together. These books can be borrowed free of charge from your neighbourhood branch of the Hamilton Public Library. No child is too young to have a library card of their very own. There is no minimum age and no charge. A library card is a key that unlocks the world of information and imagination.
Happy reading and learning.

Wait for the bell to ring.

The teacher will likely ask you to go and sit on the floor in the carpet area. You will listen as your teacher reads you a story or tells you what you will be doing. Your school day is full of lots of fun, playtime with your new friends, story time and so much more.
•
When your school day is over, you will get ready to go home. Make sure you have helped the teacher clean up and all the toys are put away. You will be able to play with them again the next time you are at school. Get all your things together that you will be taking home.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff Once upon a time there were three Billy Goats. They lived in a valley and the name of all three Billy Goats was Gruff. There was very little grass in the valley and the three Billy Goats were hungry. They decided to go up the hillside to a rich meadow full of grass and wildflowers where they could eat and get fat. But on the way to the meadow was a bridge over a stream. Under the bridge lived a Troll who was very mean and very ugly. First the youngest Billy Goat Gruff decided to cross the bridge. Trip, Trap, Trip, Trap! went the bridge. Whos that tripping over my bridge? yelled the Troll. It is I, the little Billy Goat Gruff, said the little Billy Goat in a very tiny voice. Im going to the meadow to make myself fat. No, youre not, said the Troll, for Im going to gobble you up! Oh, please dont eat me, Im much too little. Wait till the second Billy Goat Gruff comes along. Hes much bigger, said the Billy Goat. Well then, be off with you, said the Troll. Next, the middle Billy Goat Gruff decided to cross the bridge. Trip, Trap, Trip, Trap! went the bridge. Whos that tripping over my bridge? yelled the Troll. It is I, the middle Billy Goat Gruff, said the Billy Goat in a louder voice. Im going to the meadow to make myself fat. No, youre not, said the Troll, for Im going to gobble you up! Oh, please dont eat me. Wait till the third Billy Goat Gruff comes along. Hes much bigger, said the Billy Goat. Well then, be off with you, said the Troll. Next the big Billy Goat Gruff started over the bridge. . TRIP, TRAP, TRIP, TRAP! went the bridge. Whos that tramping over my bridge? yelled the Troll. It is I, the big Billy Goat Gruff, said the Billy Goat in a voice as loud as the Trolls. Now Im coming to gobble you up! roared the Troll. Well lets see you try, said the big Billy Goat Gruff. Im very big and very strong. So up climbed that mean, ugly Troll, and the big Billy Goat Gruff butted him with his horns and pushed him off the bridge. The Troll was never seen again. Then the big Billy Goat Gruff went up to the meadow to join his brothers. Together they got so fat that they could hardly walk home again. THE END Based on The Three Billy Goats Gruff by Paul Galdone
