About this audiobook
Trolls. You think you know all about them—from what you’ve read, seen, or heard.
But have you considered the baby trolls?
They do exist. And they have something to say.
...Meet Horatio, Saul, and little Grizelda: three baby trolls who just want to be heard, respected, and most of all, to be your friend.

Justine Avery
If you love where storytellers Neil Gaiman, Edgar Allan Poe, Roald Dahl, O. Henry, and Ray Bradbury take you, then you have a new name to learn and love... Professionally, Justine Avery first traversed the murky corporate world of writing and designing technical documents to navigate through writing countless travel stories, reviews, personal essays, and articles. She is now the multi-award-winning author of numerous short stories and novelette-length works. Personally, she has been writing since first falling in love with reading and words themselves, always viewing everything happening around her—and in her imagination—in the form of images translated into poignant phrases and intriguing sentences. She has written under many different names in many different genres, and is finally coming "home" to write, as herself, the stories that transcend genre. Avery has lived countless stories, takes note of the infinitely more all around, and loves and appreciates every kind. As an avid reader of all genres, both fiction and non, she knows we, as readers, may have preferences, but we’re all—just as naturally—fans of every genre... when we find the stories with real intrigue that have no bounds, that have universal appeal. Those are the stories she prefers to find... and write. "Story's in everything we say and do. Story's what drives us, scares us, changes us. We live stories, imagine them, fear some of them. They're who we are. I'm a story reader, writer, and seer. I find everything about life and in this big, wide world (and beyond) utterly fascinating. Stories should be the same. I hope you enjoy the hell out of mine." Justine Avery loves to connect with fellow readers and writers, explorers and imaginers. You can find her at JustineAvery.com, on Twitter.com @Justine_Avery... and between the lines of that new book you've been reading.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Not really sure about the point of this book. Baby trolls petitioning for equal rights? I don't think this is an ideal story for children. The drawings were exquisite and the characters were cute but the overall story idea is a little complex for children.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Cute "comic book style" story of how baby trolls don't get the respect they deserve, so they want you to sign their petition.It was difficult for my 4 yr old to follow, would be better for an older age group.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The story line is limited. I find the illustrations are expressive but seems to need more variety. With just the three trolls repeated on every page without other content it doesn't hold the kids interest. The petition idea may be too mature for the younger age group although it may introduce the concept to the young.The trolls personalities were fun.
