LoveReading4Kids Says
This is a fun chapter book that would be easy to read to young children or to give to younger fairly confident readers due to the subject. It would work well in a Key Stage 2 class as a guiding reading text. The story has many familiar fairytale elements with the Troll emerging from under a bridge and being aware of how scary he looks to humans. Rosie, a young girl visiting her grandma in her cottage in the woods happens upon the troll and from there they embark on an ancient quest together with many adventures along the way. The familiarity of the pattern of the story with some appropriately rich description makes this a story that could be returned to and enjoyed again.

Rosie & The Troll Synopsis
A young girl, a black Labrador and a technologically advanced Troll from a faraway civilisation embark on a quest of personal development, political intrigue, and a struggle against individual and corporate greed.
Can this girl from Earth change the course of our planet’s destiny, or will the current environmental chaos end a dream of joining a galactic community?
The subject is current, it touches on both political and environmental issues and explores the possibilities of how a civilisation could continue to develop as well as achieving environmental balance.
Rosie an 11-year-old girl takes a late summer walk in the woods with her Grandmothers Labrador, Hattie. She meets an Alien Troll called Thumblerock, he can talk to animals, and he wants her to go with him to his own planet for a very specific reason. This sets the scene for an intergalactic journey across the stars which for Rosie and her Grandmothers Labrador can be upsetting, delightful and full of love.
