Summary
Oliver and his best friend Troll run a cafe
in the woods. They make the BEST cakes - their troll customers would
much rather eat cakes than children! One particularly busy day in the
cafe, Oliver's sister Dolly disappears, so Oliver and Troll set off to
find her. Their search takes them up Munch Mountain, where the biggest,
meanest and grumpiest troll in the world lives. Oliver doesn't believe
all the scary rumours, but Troll's not so sure ...
Nayu's thoughts
Ah,
Oliver and Troll tale. Oliver is as care free and unphased by danger
as ever. It's funny seeing so many trolls in one place. The entire
story is unpredictable, full of laughs and surprises, especially at
the end. Dolly is quite a character, like her brother, and I'm hoping she features in further adventures in what is an entertaining series!
